Stephen Barrett renames Quackwatch 'with a new focus'



[Droll roll]

"From now on it'll be QuackWash. There is no evidence based research
indicating shampoo cures anything! It's the responsibility of those
making the claim to provide proof with double-blind, placebo-controlled
research."

In a related announcement, Barrett also announced the fall schedule for
his soon-to-be-accredited Clown School. Instead of scrolls, all
graduates will receive their own duck call whistle. [quack, quack]

Recent grads include Probert, Rosenberg and Wright. Congratulations to
all.
