Presumably then the glass the bottles the "remedies" are contained in has to be specially formulated lest it negate the effectiveness of the snake oil, sorry , homeopathic water inside? B2003

I believe it quite probable that people have seen some sort of flying animal or insect they did not recognise and called them "fairies". Fairies obviously exist as a widely understood concept, and in works of fiction. The idea that small sentinent flying humanoids exist on Earth that have the power to do magical things is however so improbable that I discount it as a possibility. >> You however made a very clear statement that you do not believe in the >> existence of radio waves. >Don't talk nonsense.
