    To Jan:

    Perhaps you do not understand exactly what is a lie.

    From m-w.comhome.htm :

    Main Entry: 3lie Function: verb Inflected Form(s): lied; ly=B7ing /'lI-i[ng]/ Etymology: Middle
    English, from Old English lEogan; akin to Old High = German liogan to lie, Old Church Slavonic
    lugati Date: before 12th century intransitive senses
    1 : to make an untrue statement with intent to deceive
    2 : to create a false or misleading impression transitive senses : to bring about by telling lies
    <lied his way out of =
    trouble>

    Please note the word "intent" in the first definition. When Kruschev = said, "We will bury you!" was
    he lying? NO! He was mistaken, and his = statement was untrue, but he believed it to be true and he
    had no intent = to deceive. If you asked one of your day care children, "What's two and = two?" and
    she replied, "Three," was she lying? Of course not. She was = mistaken, but was not trying to
    deceive you. The intent is what makes = the lie, not the incorrectness of the statement. So you
    cannot justify = calling everyone who makes an incorrect statement a liar.=20

    To "prove the lie with their own words," as you like to say, you have to = prove two things...that
    their words were incorrect, AND that they were = said with the intent to deceive. I have never seen
    you successfully do, = or even attempt, either.

    You throw the words "lie" and "liar" around wily-nily as if you have a = franchise on their
    definition. You do not.=20

    You are quite rude, Madam, an I shall continue to call you on it every = time you spit your venom
    into this venue.

    Ben Kolb

    Ben Kolb was killed by a tragic mistake when he was given an injection of adrenaline instead of an
    anaesthetic. The error occurred because things were not labelled correctly in the operating theatre.
    The injection that Ben was supposed to receive has been given tens of thousands of times before and
    it is because his reaction was so obviously atypical that the theatre staff knew immediately that
    something had gone wrong. Despite desperate efforts to save his life, Ben died. Ben's parents were
    notified as soon as the problem was identified and the surgeon, hospital and anaesthetist all
    admitted responsibility. A year later, the anaesthetist still breaks down and cries in public when
    reminded of Ben's death

    Some proponents of "alternative medicine" have tried to make an issue out of Ben's death, apparently
    on the basis that a mistake made by real doctors somehow has something to do with children dying
    because pretend doctors treat them with snake oil.

    Lie #1 Meant to deceive.

    No such thing was done, and Peter has not been able to post any proof of this. He made it up.

    If the adrenaline had been deliberately administered to Ben as part of some mad, unproven treatment
    protocol invented by someone with no medical training, no knowledge of science and no justification
    other than their own idiosyncratic quackery then it would have been something to do with
    "alternative medicine".

    It has to do with the fact that there is no reason to take the medication out of the bottles and put
    in unlabeled bowls. It has to do with the fact that we have a piece meal system for reporting these
    mistakes, therefore Dateline investigated and found many hospitals using this procedure which should
    have never been used in the first place. It has to do with the sloppy unnecessary procedure which no
    one can explain.

    Peter would like to overlook all this, by attacking the person who posted the URL of the
    Dateline report.

    Quoted message said:

    When I first went to the web site of the lawyers who acted for Ben Kolb's


    parents in their negotiations with the hospital, I expected to find some ambulance chasers in full
    flight. Instead, when I looked there I was pleasantly surprised to find a balanced and sensitive
    approach to the incident and the doctors who were as much a part of the tragedy as the parents. The
    attitude of the parents' lawyers stands in stark contrast to the way "alternative medicine"
    supporters

    Lie # 2. Meant to deceive

    There was no stark contrast. Peter has been asked to post this, he can't, he made it up.

    attempt to demonise the people who made a tragic mistake.

    Lie # 3 Intent to deceive

    There was no demonising of the people who made a tragic mistake. Peter has been asked to post thiis
    demonizing, he can't, it didn't happen, he made it up.

    In fact, here is what was said.

    <snipping to the *only* thing said about the doctor>

    Yes. They did the right thing and my heart goes out to the doctor, and all those involved. The
    parents in turn also did the right thing and dropped the lawsuit. I was indeed very sad for
    everyone. This is why I started my post with this sentence.

    This post is NOT intended to go after any *ONE* individual.

    NO demonizing whatsoever.
