Nick Hornby Quote

Did you know that Jacques Benveniste, one of the world's leading homeopathic scientists, now claims that you can *email* homeopathic remedies? Yeah, see, what you do is you can take the memory of the diluted substance out of the water electromagnetically, put it on your computer, email it, and play it back on a sound card into new water. I mean, that could work, right? (Nick's thoughts after reading Francis Wheen's book How Mumbo-Jumbo Conquered the World)
