Ernie Primeau's "findings" and accomplishments: Unverified and
unverifiable testimonials from "Maisie Dowell," "Tyrone Z," and "Scott."
Claims of emails from supporters. Failed internet businessman with an
80K loss to his name. Occasional anonymous word of support from a kook
and sycophant. Misinterpretations of scientific abstracts Ernie read
probably about 10 years ago and is unable to properly cite anyways. 10+
years of ranting and raving on usenet to anyone who will listen to his
obsessive delusions about "a.shole farrel," or "snakeoilers."

Dr. Folkman, MD's findings and body of research: Began publishing in
peer-reviewed journals such as JAMA, Nature, and Science as early as his
time as a medical student. Despite lacking formal training as a
scientist (at least according to Ernie Primeau), he published 389
articles in journals, despite the editorial boards of these journals
being staffed by the same people critical of his groundbreaking
theories. Also published dozens of book chapters in
professionally-edited textbooks. Spawned an entire field of research
based on his theories.

Forget Ernie Primeau.

Remember Dr. Folkman, surgeon.... and 'untrained,' 389-time-published
scientist.
