EVIDENCE-BASED MEDICINE

Theo and I recently visited a mind, body and spirit fest (with some other members of our family who wish to remain anonymous). Theo is putting together a podcast on the event, but in the meantime I offer this cartoon as my 'take' on the event. This spruiker was not very successful in selling his product. His hideous appearance and manifest diseases prevented even airheads from being conned. So at one level, evidence-based medicine triumphed (Physician, heal thyself).

Note that this is not REALLY a cartoon, because this is an EXACT likeness of the crystal vendor.
