Nobel laureate joins anti-vaccination crowd at Autism One - Forbes
A Nobel Laureate has joined the anti-vaccine crowd... unfortunately he is also babbling about molecules teleporting from test tube to test tube. The lunatic fringe sadly has a new member. Be sure to read page 2 of the story.
This is the saddest part to me. These charlatans are all trying to make a buck off these poor desperate deluded people.

A look at the presentations reveals that rather than presenting “the truth,” one speaker after another is making unsupported, unscientific claims and then offering their own special therapy. The one thing that most of these presentations have in common is that the speaker is making money from selling their so-called treatments. For example, Anat Baniel offers her self-named “Anat Baniel method” and is promoting it through ads in the conference program. Other speakers are offering special diets, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and in perhaps the most damaging treatment, Mark and David Geier’s chemical castration therapy. Mark Blaxill is there, still pushing the thoroughly disproven link between mercury and autism, and hawking his book on the topic.
