Well, just before publishing his earth-shattering (or truth-shattering)
discoveries of Lyme, Steere was busy doing studies of the efficacy of
hand-washing techniques in maintaining asepsis -
a well-known concern of rheumatologists.
BTW Bruce, if I can put this politely, you seem to be a
little...hmmmm..eccentric these days. Is something up with you?
When I first read your posts I really liked them, not just the funny
stuff but also the serious stuff. And you did seem to grasp that the
Steere camp were guilty of deliberate fraud (as you do in this post).
But I have noticed that lately you have started to become kinda friendly
with weisman (Chief Skunk of Sci Med). What's going on? Surely you know
he is a Steere camp provocateur?
If you don't, I suggest you do a search for his name + ILADS or
"weisman" + "burrascano" or even "weisman" + "LymeNet" and see the kind
of crap that comes up. He is forever expressing his hatred for ILADS and
making fun of our good doctors, as well as showing his hatred of all
Lymeland.
It is true he does pretend to be a Lymie at times, and says things
apparently against the Steere camp, especially when new people pop into
the sci-med group.
But if you read closely, there is always a a sub-text, a punchline at
the end. It's things like "well, we all know the testing sucks, but
........." or "I don't like Steere, but...." and what follows the "but"
comes straight out of a bull's butt, basically.
The themes are always the same, ie "Lymies lose credibility if they
denounce the Steere camp, and anyway they are not guilty of fraud
theyr're just mistaken, etc etc...".and then he will launch into an
attack on LLMDs, accusing them of malpractice, incompetence,
embezzlement, you-name-it. He has been incredibly vicious and sadistic
in his dealings with Lymies, above all with those who threaten the
Steere camp in any way.
I thought you were an intelligent guy, and could see through that stuff?
Sorry to crab. But you're not the first Lymie to get drawn into his
snake-pit. He hypnotised that fool Martijn, and manipulated a mentally
ill woman with Lyme into going around hurling abuse at LLMDs, and
repeating everything he said.
I'm not suggesting you are going to start bad-mouthing ILADS and calling
LymeNet "LymeNut" just because he does. I just don't understand why you
are giving him the time of day?
I truly hope you're not thinking of smoking the genetically-modified
peace pipe with weisman?

"One question I have never seen adequately answered is why allen
steere served in the EIS and CDC for two years as an epidimilogist - and
THEN did his fellowship at yale in rheumatology. Does anyone have an
answer for this? It seems to me that someone who worked in the EIS and
epidemiology would be interested in an ID fellowship as opposed to
rheumatology. Although of course epidemiology involves the study of all
diseases and their occurences and frequencies, it's a somewhat odd
combination, and odd again in terms of sequence of events."
