Hi, it's University of California, Berkeley. It's the Berkeley campus of the University of California, which has a batch of campuses around the...
Hi, I'm just getting up to speed this morning. A couple of points about the letter. I have been using the phrasing "no legitimate evidence" or "no...
yes, this is what I'm wondering. Were they specifically commissioned to promote this? Or is there some other more generic arrangement? It's not...
thanks for providing that data. I'd forgotten about the real-world results.
