https://arstechnica.com/science/2018/05/doctor-slammed-by-med-board-for-selling-5-homeopathic-sound-waves-for-ebola/

The California medical board is threatening to revoke the license of Dr. William Edwin Gray III for selling homeopathic sound files over the Internet that he claims—without evidence or reason—can cure a variety of ailments, including life-threatening infections such as Ebola, SARS, swine flu, malaria, typhoid, and cholera.

If that can cure me of my old age too, I'm all game! Which button must I press?

    My star is the most popular one on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. As everybody knows. And they have a tradition with the stars, we touch the wet cement with our hands and feet, leaving our prints in the cement. Leaving a hole in the cement. The homeopathy with the water is like that. They mix a very special poison with water. Then the water that was touched by the poison, they take that and mix it with more water. They keep doing that until there's very little poison, and a lot of water. But they say it's very special water. Because it touched the poison. Or it touched water that touched the poison. Or, it touched water that touched water that touched the poison. And the poison -- they say -- left its mark on the water. Its print. So that water becomes very special. They call it medicine, I call it water.

    This one is the homeopathy with the MP3. And I didn't see the explanation, but I think it works the same way. Only with cyber. They take a sound, they record it, right? Then they do the MP3 cyber. And it's like making a print -- a cast -- of the sound. It's not the original sound. But it touched that sound in a special way. Through the MP3 process. The sound left its mark. Sometimes you can tell what the original sound was. And sometimes you can't. The original was somebody saying "Laurel." But the MP3 sometimes sounds like "Yanni." And sometimes like "Laurel." Did you hear that one?

    I think the guy saw something on YouTube [duckduckgo.com] and decided to monetize it.

    Having this performed by a real "Doctor" means premium payment expected.

    Maybe even covered by insurance....
