OK, so judging by the name, these people are a network dedicated to vaccinating. WRONG! It's just one of the underhanded tricks they use to fool parents into NOT vaccinating children or anyone else. These people have dubbed me

My dear father, Rev. Bob Saunders
9 April.2006
 I was by my father’s bedside as he died, quite peacefully on the 8th of April 2006. Dad loved life and loved his family. I cannot bring myself to pity him as he, due largely to mum, had a wonderful life. The pity I feel is for the family and friends he leaves behind who will always miss him.
I have put a small video of Dad online, it shows you a little of how much he loved us, especially his grandkids.

| The Great Skeptic CD2 |
|
This CD is truly a goldmine, a comprehensive reference tool for educators, students, researchers, and journalists, an extensive resource on all subject matter worthy of the skeptical eye, and a fabulously entertaining and enjoyable production to pass the time with.
Amanda Chesworth
Skeptical Inquirer
All in all, both fun and interesting. A valuable addition to any skeptic’s library.
Wendy Grossman
UK Skeptics
The only problem I can see is a positive thing - it will take a huge amount of time to read all the articles from down under. Do I need to mention this? The CD is formidable!
Willy Wegner

| Homeopathy |

A highlight of the 2004 Australian Skeptics Convention was the successful failure of a Homeopathic Mass Suicide.
Before the convention, we marched into a Sydney Pharmacy, yes, a pharmacy, and bought almost $100 worth of worthless sleeping pills. Then, as you can see in the photo, Prof. Colin Keay, Dr. David Brookman, Richard Saunders, Barry Williams, Dr. Phil Plait, Peter Bowditch and Dr. Steve Roberts (not pictured) took the lot. We ate enough sleeping pills each that we should now all be dead.
The point, apart from showing once again that this stuff is rubbish, was to also remind the audience that some parents actually try to vaccinate their babies with "Homeopathic Vaccines". This could indeed have deadly consequences.
your own title deed to a homeopathic bridge!

Australia's Best!!
A quick search on Google and watching TV reports finally answers that great question, Who is Australia's best ?
(The next question - why haven’t they walked away with the
money - is unanswered.)
