Most of us remember the dubious "doctor" in Huckleberry Finn who proclaims to have the cure for any malady. From the back of the crowd his shill would loudly proclaim that he himself had been healed by the magical elixir. Oh my, but the quantity of snake oil they sold before the townsfolk discovered they had been duped - and the doctor long gone. From the tone of many internet blogs it seems the same buyer's remorse is lingering in the "Packaged...more
