Conspiracy theory nuttersI keep getting collared by a bloke who says that the war in Afghanistan is a cover for our Illuminati Freemason Shapeshifting Lizard masters to corner the market in mind-bending drugs. "It's true," he says, "I heard it on TalkSport". Tell us your stories of encounters with tinfoil hatters.
Thanks to Davros' Granddad

Don't get me started on the whole"but animals don't experience the placebo effect, so magic water must work, explain THAT, skeptic..." rant as well.
I give you a) regression to the mean and b) the owner's perception of whether their animal is getting better or not. The dog can't tell you whether the sugar pills work, the owner can. Placebo by proxy.
