It's not FDA approved, I can see that from the website.

Sure, but you can ask in a pseudo-oblivious way that hopefully gets a point across. Normally I'd shy away from advocating the passive-agressive approach but it might be worthwhile (or at least satisfying) here.

I'd love to needle them, but see above re trying to find more work for the nanny. I care about her livelihood more than trying to prove people wrong on the Internet at this point, so I don't want to be the one to fan the flames.

It's our giant pattern-seeking brains that are the problem. Makes it easier to see conspiracies everywhere.

It seems to me that while as a society we're a bit more likely to Question Authority, we haven't yet figured out that it's also really useful to Question the Authority-Questioners.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Okay, I'm going to need you people to talk more, because otherwise I go read things that are bad for me.

I have Thursday and Friday off next week, and for the first time ever, we're not traveling for Thanksgiving.
