[...] But this wasn't the end of it. Nine people subsequently private messaged me menacing death threats and accusing me of the usual: being a Mossad agent, a Rupert Murdoch minion and employee of Royal Bank of Scotland out to bring Jim Corr down. Seven out of ten members of Jim Corr's army who contacted me are apparently in the field of 'alternative medicine'. This actually seems to be typical homeopath and crystal healer behavior. [...]

It's all about resisting magic words, though I suspect Sharon doesn't have much objection to the use of the word "cunt".

Nothing against cunts as such, Sharon. Personally, I use the word frequently in order to reduce its apparent status as a really, really bad swear word. I believe words have power because of context, rather than any innate power. It's how, when and why you use a word, not the word itself that has the power.

Even so, this bloke's a total cunt.

As far as I know, you are allowed to use portions of copywrited material in the US for the purpose of discussing it or criticising it. it is called fair use.

They're not very bright, these anonymous would-be intimidators. Thanks for backing me up. The more people realise what tactics the magic water peddlers use to prevent criticism (and here's a clue, it's not through science) the better.

Just one thing, why do people call them cunts. What on earth have you got against cunts?

Bock, couldn't agree more with you, in fact I was just watching a clip of James Randi the other day, the celebrated skeptic, and I think it sums everything up brilliantly. Have a look:
