It certainly doesn't help.

I don't know what the trainers are thinking about when they use it, my guess is the level playing field. I wish none of the european trainers used it to be honest. I cannot help in the long run on the return to european shores. We have many remedies and such over here that are legal, but most of which are complete rubbish.

Thats the best argument you can come up with?

Anyone who thinks Lasix causes breakdowns probably thinks cell phones cause cancer and the earth is flat. Lack of evidence is always a pesky little problem when people bring up rubbish like Lasix causes breakdowns

I was reading a study recently which said that "the consensus among well-designed population studies is that there is no consistent association between cell phone use and brain cancer." Despite this fact, 30% of Americans still believe that cell phone use actually DOES cause brain cancer. What are these morons basing this opinion on? Who the hell knows.
As you say, a lot of people seem to enjoy endorsing theories despite the fact that there is no evidence whatsoever to support it.
