Why can't each patient decide for himself what a "proper" test of a medicine is?duhbesides there are innocent people who might see some of the inanity here and waste their money 
Need recommendation for a CD player
"the Oppo has so many features I wouldn't be using in an audio only system that I ought to get a CD player more focused on just playing CDs. "this makes sense, except that Oppo is known for having better sound than much more expensive playersnew E...
