Dear CLICK4HP List Subscribers,

This is a friendly advisory from your frequently hidden literal CLICK4HP
listowner (representing only 1/3rd of the able list management team, and
a minority gender presence).

CLICK4HP expects that there will be little traffic on CLICK4HP devoted
to arguing the merits, or demerits, of this or that medical or
homeopathic cure for what ails us.

As part of the implied and unwritten CLICK4HP protocols, if you think
you have found a major insight (good or bad) into treatment, you should
simply post a one or two liner pointing to the relevant site - and
invite private (off-list) conversation on the issues associated with the
site, treatment, cure.

It is appropriate and productive to discuss the relative merits of
health promotion strategies, based on evidence and outcomes. It is not
appropriate, nor productive, to use CLICK4HP to argue the validity of
competing claims with regard to specific cures and treatments. Those
discussions should be carried on elsewhere. That is what makes the world
rich and varied.
