Acupuncture is bunk

Here's a terrific webcomic exposing the silliness of acupuncture. People are always citing these awful studies at me that they claim support the efficacy of acupuncture, and like the comic says what I see when I read them is that the advocates have gone "anomaly hunting after any statistically relevant result, usually by cherry-picking data or creative interpretation. You'll never find a conclusive effect with acupuncture studies".

I'd really like to hook the traditional Chinese medicine freaks with the cannabinoid bozos who've lately been doing the same thing: citing weak results to prop up extravagant claims of near miraculous efficacy. A kookfight to the death!
