The "quackbuster" operation in North America, run out of a New York ad agency, took another broadside last month in Massachusetts when the Massachusetts Dental Board called, not one, but two, "special meetings," both to dismiss, with prejudice, all seven charges against cutting-edge Dentist David Satloff. The attempt to use a State agency in a "fake" prosecution to eliminate "Holistic Dentistry," and/or "Biological Dentistry" failed.
Charges had been brought against Satloff by the National Council Against Health Fraud (NCAHF) president Robert S. Baratz who claims to be a combination MD, DDS and PhD. Baratz was, also, the only person to testify against Satloff - and he testified for nine full days. I estimate Baratz was paid $125,000 for his testimony by the State of Massachusetts. Baratz testified in an earlier hearing that he has never, actually practiced Dentistry. He also claimed to be a "spokesperson" for the American Dental Association, and a consultant to the US FDA.

Why Corretta Scott King went to a Mexican Clinic...
Opinion by Consumer Advocate Tim Bolen
Thursday, February 23rd, 2006
There is no question that the extremely profitable US cancer industry provides absolutely ZERO hope, for US patients, against cancer. I don't think there is anybody in the US that believes the absolute drivel promoted by the American Cancer Society (ACS), a group that has come, not to represent "the fight against cancer," but more as a "spokesperson for the rip-off cancer industry."
A few months ago the American Cancer Society publicly whined that they had done a survey and found out that about half of the American public believed that there really were cancer cures available and that those cures were being suppressed by the industry because the non-cures were so profitable...

Washington Dental School Under Assault for "Mercury Poisoning"...
Opinion by Consumer Advocate Tim Bolen
Thursday, February 23rd, 2006
Pierce College of Dentistry hired Dental Hygienist Laurie Pruett, over ten years ago, to assist the school in its teaching of the practice of Dentistry. What they "forgot" to tell her, according to court records, is that she would be handling mercury amalgam fillings, and those mercury fillings were toxic, giving of constant noxious gases, which would, eventually, result in consequential health problems.
Ten years later, of course, Laurie Pruett began to show the symptoms of mercury poisoning. It wasn't long before those symptoms affected her work, and her daily routine. When Pruett sought medical attention she was amazed to find out what competent Medical Doctors knew all along - that working in a "mercury" environment was hazardous to your health - and that adequate safeguards needed to be in place - facts that Pierce College of Dentistry pooh-poohed, again and again, according to court records.
Pruett, loyal to her employer, went to her superiors, and explained the situation. Pierce College responded by firing her.

US Internet "Free Speech" Tightly Controlled by Secret Group...
Opinion by Consumer Advocate Tim Bolen
Wednesday, February 22nd, 2006
American citizens think, wrongly, that the internet is a place where they can somewhat freely express their opinions about social issues important to them. But they are dead wrong - for there is an internet company, based in London, England that continuously monitors internet traffic - and if that company, or any of its members, or its customers, don't like what an American is saying on the internet, they can, and will, shut down that person's access to the internet.
Surprised? Don't be.
Controlling internet access, and preventing "free speech" is a despot's dream come true - for it has been the internet, for some time now, that has provided the means for social activists on important issues to communicate, not only with each other, but with the media and the public.
The internet has, basically, changed the way people communicate worldwide. Everyone knows that, on the internet, you can type out a message to someone, "CC" it to any number of friends at all corners of the Earth, and in seconds you can get responses.
But that's over. Those social activists are being identified by a British company called Spamhaus for its customers, and barriers and blocking devices are being put in place to block communication between activists, groups, and the American public. So far, Spamhaus has taken sides on several issues, and despite the fact that the US is a "free speech" nation, Spamhaus openly states on its website "we don't care what US laws say..."
