This was rigourously shaken, then a tenth was extracted and once more diluted to ten times the original volume. This was repeated to such a degree that by traditional methods no chemical trace of the original medicene remained. The remarkable thing was, when patients were treated with the homeopathic mixture they responded as if they had received the original undiluted medicene, only they had few of the side affects associated with the stronger chemicals. As you can imagine the pharmacutrical industry was less than impressed with the results of Dr Beneviste's work. The pressure they applied to the French govt. was such that Dr Beneviste's career was effectively destroyed.
Ghosts appear in cold damp environments traditionally.
