We have got pretty good at responding to such articles on the science and avoiding fulfulling the cliche of the rabid activist. Public utterances of the BPS brigade of late have usually been own goals which win us new friends, and if this article is another such opportunity there's no reason not...

What perfect timing - my psychotherapist student and Anna Freud fan is coming tomorrow for her English lesson, so I can discuss Peter Neubauer with her and see what she thinks.

It'll be worse tomorrow.

Doesn't get much lazier than this. Nicoleen Coetzee, trying to think up an idea for a new paper, has a brilliant idea - "I know, I'll ask my colleagues to fill in a questionnaire or two, that way I won't even have to leave the building! If 5% of them respond, I can write something up and publish...

He seems to spend a lot of time falling, slipping and breaking bits of himself.

No. It is beyond satire.

Don't know, sorry.

Maybe Coyne could encourage him by offering to apologize to PwME for protecting the bad science of Edward Shorter. They could hold hands and unburden their consciences together. That would be lovely.

This is what Wessely wants: (5 minute video in German about the Heidelberg psychosomatic clinic, in German): Pure BPS power-grab, talks about influencing the education of new doctors, integration with (all) other hospital departments (oncology etc), how psychosomatic medicine fills the gap...

https://www.dr-lechner.de/assets/Artikel/Autonome-Selbstbalance.pdf Here is an article from 2002 by a quack dentist in Munich, which cites RGM's "Autonomic Self Regulation" often, and introduces a machine to help you do it. Of interest to us is this: These are photographs of the Aura of the...

RGM is still plying his trade: From 1990 to 2006, Grossarth-Maticek was Director of the Institute for Preventive Medicine, Political, Economic and Health Psychology in Heidelberg. He then took over the management of the Heidelberg Center for Multidisciplinary Research (ZMF). Since 2007, he has...

By the way @Amy Proal, can you tell us a little more about the Autoimmunity Research Foundation? I notice on this paper: http://www.discoverymedicine.com/Amy-D-Proal/2014/05/22/inflammatory-disease-and-the-human-microbiome/ Two authors, Marshall and yourself, give their institution as the...

And this: http://www.discoverymedicine.com/Amy-D-Proal/2014/05/22/inflammatory-disease-and-the-human-microbiome/ And this: http://autoimmunityresearch.org/preprints/Proal_2013_CurrentOpinion-Preprint.pdf And this: http://autoimmunityresearch.org/preprints/Proal_MHB_Chapter_preprint.pdf And...

Thank you, I did. It looks like "Dr" Marshall (actually a Phd in electrical engineering and no medical training) has produced a complete pile of quackery. Here are a couple of many descriptions: http://www.cureality.com/blog/post/2008/03/31/the-marshall-protocol-and-other-fairy-tales.html...

My wife hung up our full-length mirror, with the result that when I look into it the top of my head is missing. I bang my head on the extractor fan when leaning over the cooker ... guess who told the people who installed it how high that should be? Every time I get into the shower I have to...

He probably assumed you were falling to your knees and worshiping him.

I've just watched that. In it she recommends Richard D Halls's analysis of Clarence Mitchell, which I've also just watched, along with some other stuff by Richard D Hall. Based on that, I would say that Richard D Hall is without doubt a complete nutter conspiracy theorist (secret space program...

Same way the BPS crew do - if it works, it was delivered correctly. If it doesn't, it wasn't. At the moment everyone is delivering it incorrectly (Can't remember which BPS activist claimed that). The only alternative explanation as to why it causes so much harm to genuine ME sufferers is that...
