I read Dr.Ben Goldacre's 'Bad Science' column in the Guardian each week, and of course have to agree with pretty much everything he says, because it's true, and not necessarily because he's a "serious fuck-off academic ninja" (ego check there, Benny boy.) And I know Gillian Mckeith is an annoying pretense at a charlatan, but give the girl a break. Please.
Of course I too could have done a masters in philosophy if I hadn't got sidetracked into saving the lives of complete no-hopers living in the armpit of society, but that's another story. One thing I really, really would like to get from a clinical trial paper some day is a conclusion that says something other than the results, whilst interesting, are far from conclusive. Further studies on a larger scale are probably warranted.
We must be able to do better than than, surely?
