Default The site doesn't seem to exist

Hi worldling,

I can't reach the link. My browser says it can't locate the server. Are you sure the URL is correct?

Also, I tried to google "The Crystal Chamber" and only got a bunch of Reiki links. This doesn't look loke science, or even remotely related??

A confused

Hi Enai

The link works for me. It is to a hoax "homeopathic crystals" site, which has caused quite a stir. There is a short article about it in March's New Scientist. Sorry you can't access it. I don't understand why.

Unhappy

Too bad it expired. I would have liked to see it, I had bad experiences with homeopathy myself. Hint: NEVER let any naturopath persuade you to try it as a pain relief!

Anyway-weekend now!!

Sorry folks. I was too late posting this, and the site is down.

Here is a link to the New Scientist article, where you can read the story behind it.
