They're both waving of something, but on the other hand 
much of medicine treads so close to shamanism anyhow.

I was right, as it turns out. Ben-Veniste is as crazy as the
other guy.

TRANSATLANTIC TRANSFER OF DIGITIZED ANTIGEN SIGNAL BY TELEPHONE LINK.

J. Aefssa, P. Jurgens, W. Hsueh and J. Benveniste. Digital Biology
Laboratory (DBL), 32 rue des Carnets, 92140 Clamart, France, and
Northwestern University Medical School, Chicago, IL 60614, USA.

 Ligands so dilute that no molecule remained still retained
 biological activity which could be abolished by magnetic
 fields, suggesting the electromagnetic (EM) nature of the
 molecular signal. This was confirmed by the electronic
 transfer to water of molecular activity, directly or after
 computer storage. Here, we report its telephonic transfer.

You can't make this up. It takes a Nobelist to make this up.

That's the point. You butter them up with attention
so you don't have to waste money renting a good chef.
