That's funny!
I like this part:
Also feeling pity for Schaffner is his former girlfriend Aimee Brand, a holistic and homeopathic healer who earns a living selling tonics and medicines diluted to one molecule per gallon in the belief that the water "remembers" the curative properties of the medication.
"Don't get me wrong—logic and reason have their place," Brand said. "But Craig fails to recognize the danger of going too far with medical common sense to the exclusion of alternative New Age remedies like chakra cleansing and energy-field realignment."

One molecule per gallon? Most homeopathic "remedies" are diluted so much that it would take all of the molecules in the universe for there to be even one molecule of the original substance left in the solution. Homeopathic medicine is probably my favorite pseudoscience.
