I have a question for UK skeptics?

How was the 1023 event? Did you get sick or did you get sick homeopathically?

    There wasn't one near me, but here are some videos and pictures of some of the events. Two 'sympathy' events took place in Australia - brilliant.

    And reports of the various events:

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8489019.stm

    ''The Society of Homeopaths said treatments are "person specific" and based on taking a series of small doses, so it did not expect any reaction in the protesters unless one already had symptoms matched to their remedy. ''

    LOL. Imagine, the producers of a drug saying that a massive overdose of their drug will produce no reaction! They might as well have said ''Er...yes, homeopathy is all a load of rubbish''.

    Pills that anyone can buy over the counter in one of Britain's biggest high street chains are 'person specific'?

    Anyway, I've got the news channel on and there are no reports of any deaths at time of writing!

    Ah, I didn't realise it was happening but I'd have happily overdosed myself!
