Re: Absotively posilutely
Panda, wonderfully, among other things, points out:
People do prescribe a positive attitude (to everybody continuously).
Never underguesstimate the unmitigated power of Positive Drinking.

Re: Qi*
The caveman with a SHARP rock is not the alternative to acupuncture or more drugs. No - that would be the caveman with a BLUNT rock to knock you out so the brain surgery can proceed.
The issue is: does x units of acupuncture + .5 units drugs == 1 unit drugs?, when it comes to making the patient comfortable enough during the surgery so as not to be a problem.
