OK!!!!
Today David Colquhoun explained me his point of view personally. I make nothing against him longer and I withdraw my words against David Colquhoun.

Dear Holfordwatch.
I ask you delete my comment. David has vindicated that he is worthy to be Professor. He showed that he is real Scotchman ;)

PS. This statement doesn’t concern of Ben Goldacre. He hasn’t proved anything still. However, I have no claim, because I am not interested in him at all. Delete my comment in whole.

Kudos, Coracle -perhaps I won't bother with CoQ10!! I was a bit tempted since I have worked on both mitochondrial metabolism and oxidative stress over the years. Perhaps if I go and do some cells-in-a-dish experiments with CoQ10 I will be able to publish them in Patrick's favourite Alt-organ the Journal of Orthomolecular Medicine (aka "J Nutri-twaddle") BTW, if you never got the Marcoff Q10 / statinopathy review in Am J Cardiol, and are still interested, let me know.

Did someone say CoQ10? Dammit, I was there first before these jonny-come-latelies Goldacre and Colquhoun *shakes fist*
