In my opinion, Coleah Penley Ayers of this group:

www.humanticsfoundation.com/andysposse.htm

FINALLY asked the right question about Barrett's and Team's
War against me ... in the courtroom (where he has lost 1000%) ... and
on the internet, filled with "ragtag posse members" and others from
his Healthfraud Listserv.

Coleah asked:

What threat are they to the women with silicone breast implants?

Huge.
Enormous.
Pervasive.


It's not difficult, as Marcia Angell, accurately said ...to follow the
money.

Huge money ...

Here is why I know that Barrett's Regime and their Web of Deceit is
dangerous for the women harmed by breast implants ... women I love
beyond measure ... and to whom I have dedicated 9 years of my life
telling their stories to the media.

It Barrett's Quack Team has their way ... wonderful scientists and
physcians who devote their lives to the study of MCS would lose their
licenses and/ or sued into oblivion ...

EXCERPTS:

I believe that a review of Barrett’s and Polevoy’s websites also
illustrates that they publish their opinions and conclusions on
medical issues as "facts" concerning on-going medical controversies
such as Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS), an illness that
devastates the health of a high number of women with breast implants.
As explained in my original declaration, ¶16, Barrett prematurely and,
in my opinion, inaccurately, concludes "‘Multiple chemical
sensitivity’ is not a legitimate diagnosis." (Rosenthal Decl., Exhibit
J, p. 6.)

I was shocked that Barrett wrote of the clinical ecologists who
believe in MCS, "most of them should have their licenses revoked."
(See Ex. I to my original declaration.)

I believe that if Barrett’s position becomes accepted by the
mainstream medical community, it would not only hinder women who are
impacted by the effects of this debilitating illness from getting the
help they need, it would also aid in the defense of the silicone
manufacturers in the billion dollar lawsuits against them that
continue today.

Plaintiffs claim that my statements about them are not related to
breast implant issues. (Opposition, 2:2-6). Barrett, in ¶15 of his
declaration, also declares, "I do not have a ‘highly publicized
viewpoint on the subject of breast implants’" and then states, "Nor
have I been involved in any public controversy about them." However,
page 21 of the 24-page report on "Multiple Chemical Sensitivity"
(MCS), edited by Barrett, and widely disseminated by the American
Council on Science and Health (ACSH), states "If the medical community
accepts the diagnosis and theory of MCS, a wide range of industries
could be seriously affected," and then lists the "silicone breast
implant" makers as number 6 of the industries seriously affected. (See
Exhibit A hereto for a true copy of excerpts of said report - opens
PDF file.)
