War Story

Michael Shermer reports on a victory in the never-ending battle of science against quackery, despite the latter's best efforts to intimidate through legalistic means. In this instance, it was a doctor calling bullshit on some con artists who had managed to get published a journal article claiming "scientific proof" for the power of prayer.

(Ironically, the good guy here is named Bruce Flamm. Not reported was whether his nickname is Flimm.)
