So, someone, I think Peter, claims that Homeopathy does not work
because he took some Homeopathic "Sleeping Pills" and did not fall
asleep. If he was not so slow, he might have noticed that he did not
have a problem with sleeping. He expected a DRUG type effect. He seems
to favor drugs. ( I met a junkie like that once) He knows squat about
how to correctly test something like Homeopathy, and yet he comes here
blubbering and blustering as though he has discovered something. Pete,
try some smart pills, you might have better luck. If you do not like my
rudeness, just click on by.
