Actually my life experience using wikipedia for
self medication
does not bear that out. There have been situtations where I was
in dire straits, and without a doctor within easy reach, where
simply consulting wikipedia provided me with the necessary
information of which medicines I had been prescribed for
completely different ailments, was a multipurpose drug
workable in the situation I found myself.
and that is a fact. I am sure there
are phone-line services I could
have consulted, but wikipedia
worked ok.
And my grandmother is 100 years old and has smoked 40 a day.
