Hi Barb

I guess I can respond in one of at least 3 ways that I can think of, right now, as I write this:
  1. The process works; it is effective.
  2. The process does not work; it cannot bring about the changes and benefits people testify to.
  3. I do not know one way or the other, so cannot really say yay or nay.
If it does work, believing that “no, it does not” seems irrelevant; it will not make the process false.
If it does not work, believing that “yes it does” seems equally irrelevant; it will not make the falsehood true.

So, I’ll probably settle on Number 3 as I am not qualified to state either 1 or 2 with any certainty, as I haven’t been there, investigated the phenomenon, met the participants, reviewed the data, etc. so a yes or no would be just my opinion based on personal feelings and beliefs and not worth the paper it were written on.

Thanks for the link though, it was certainly an interesting segment.

Cheers

Dennis
