So if it doesn't appear on the path. boards, it doesn't exist?
I thought *you* claimed to be a clinician. The fact that you go
to such length to ridicule a common concept (enhancing Abs),
even when given pointers to educating yourself, makes such claims
ludicrous. It would actually be even more terifying if someone
so complacent, nay, proud in their ignorance actually provided care,
even as a veterinarian.

It could be of critical importance, if one had a health condition
where enhancing Abs are clinically relevant. Maybe it's not important
to *you*. That doesn't mean it's not important to actual clinicians,
researchers, and patients.

What the hell does any of this have to do with the discussion at hand?
It's time to take your meds. BTW: I was a physics major in college.
An easy fact to check, given that I use my own name. I would eat my
shoes if you were competent in doing the math to explain superstrings.
If your referencee to P 10, first paragraph is from Hawking's book,
I don't really have time for pop-culture predigested sketches for
persons ignorant of the field. And what the hell has this to do with HIV?
Just go to alt.flame.
