Having read the locked thread, my tuppence worth, being a non believer too, when I dislocated a finger on a geordie who slide tackled me at the park. When I took some homeopathic pills it really improved, the days I didn't it hurt more. Anyway on to the important thing of sound quality, and how on earth can a shielded mains cable not work. It reduces interference, often the block will have surge protection and having a Physics A level I would imagine a cleaner signal actually improves the output. Anyway the truth is in the pudding (yes I know).

You took pills and they worked. The human brain is indeed powerful. And before the current litigious society we live in, doctors regularly prescribed 'placebo' drugs. Now they fear to. Instead they use homeopathic pills... ie sugar pills. Same result, without the fear of legal acion.

We most definitely do not prescribe homeopathic pills in the UK. Homeopaths do what they do but we only prescribe licensed and relatively few unlicensed drugs.

I take it back if you're in the profession. I was going by what I was told by a usually reliable source...But it is indeed true that placebos are no longer prescribed is it not?
although it wouldnt harm anyway as they aren't a drug, or in fact anything other than harmless white bits of nothing.

[quote user="timwileman"]ahhh....but you specialise in clinical trails?[/quote]
Nope. Just Paeds. How exactly do you specialize in clinical trials? Though could be involved in one at some stage possibly. Depends on who you work for.......
