Simon Singh Demonstrates the Power of Mental Frames
>> ^gwiz665:
Proves that we hear with our eyes and our brain as well as with our ears.
It's a similar thing that happens in the McGurk effect: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFPtc8BVdJk

Richard Dawkins Speaks out Against UK Libel Laws
Simon Singh is my hero
Bill Maher Overtime with David Cross
What he said in the beginning:
"There's only medicine or not medicine"
Alternative medicine is all a scam. If it works, it's medicine, if it doesn't it's crap. Some things are considered "alternative" medicine, such as massage therapy and acupuncture, which are indeed medicinal, but other stuff like homeopathy and putting crystals on your body is completely bogus. And chiropractic can only work on your joints, muscles and bones - if you postulate that cracking a back can cure your infected ear - or whatever it is the bullshitters are suing Simon Singh for disputing - you're just full of crap. You're either deliberately lying to get money out of desperate people or you're blatantly ignorant. Neither is very good for your case.
(I have a serious hair up my ass about "alternative medicine", like I do organized religion.)

Katie Melua - "I cried for you"
Geeks may know her for her humorous response to writer and scientist Simon Singh's disputing the scientific accuracy of one of her lyrics (Wikipedia):
Katie Melua "Nine Million Bicycles"
Melua's rerecording of this is mentioned/played at the end of Michael Shermer's TEDTalk. Apparently Simon Singh was upset with the inaccurate measurements she used in the song.
