  I would send out emails to random people, telling them that they won some money. All they have to do to claim it would be to respond with their bank routing and account number. Also, they would have to agree in the email to go directly to the news once funds were deposited, and tell them about it. I would also claim to be a Nigerian prince every once and a while.

  And then, for each person that responded.... I would pay $10k.

  From that point forward, it would be very difficult to determine which emails were scams, and which were actually free money.

  Then I would enjoy the chaos a bit.

  ANTI-DEPRESSANT medication for the last 60 years now proved to be based on poorly supported false theory

  by Terry in

  "the chemical imbalance theory of depression is still put forward by professionals, and the serotonin theory, in particular, has formed the basis of a considerable research effort over the last few decades.

  the general public widely believes that depression has been convincingly demonstrated to be the result of serotonin or other chemical abnormalities, and this belief shapes how people understand their moods, leading to a pessimistic outlook on the outcome of depression and negative expectancies about the possibility of self-regulation of mood""read: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1m92v7hb0njm2mnvnu6nv0kpnkzloe-_k4crh_wphpti/edit?usp=sharing.

  Aren't we conflating two things here?

  The study in the OP is saying the theory behind anti-depressants is incorrect and even fabricated: that is, the "chemical imbalance" idea. That doesn't mean that medication affecting serotonin levels won't help with the "feeling".

  If someone says they are feeling down, we could prescribe heroin. Suddenly the depressed person feels "better". We could even hypothesize that depression is cause by "low opioid levels". We would say, "see, when they get their opioid levels up, things are better."

  For a drug to be used to "cure" something there has to be a proven cause/diagnosis of the problem first.

  @neat:

  Yeap. Trollish behavior too - asking the same thing over and over, and not interacting. Fake.

  Hence the opportunity to have a bit of fun.

  Whatever you consider an "activist," the point of that survey, it seems, is that when most people think of an "activist", it brings to mind something akin to "asshole".

  To be fair, this undoubtedly has to do politics.

  If you allow the JW guy to show you a "helicopter", it's unlikely that act alone constitutes "porniea".

  Have you taken the appropriate steps to Kerbuckle?

  It's been a while since I've been to this thread. But, I thought they were divorcing. This was confirmed by Lloyd, and others, I thought.

  And I thought, being free of any marriage pretense, Lloydster was out-of-the-closet and back to sex workers.
