One step forward, two steps back

Och and he was doing so well. After delighting his fans by displaying some musical taste (see here), the Heir to the Throne blows it once again. The BBC website has the story:
"Prince Charles has said "proven" therapies should be integrated with conventional medicine.
He told the World Health Assembly in Geneva: "The proper mix of proven complementary, traditional and modern remedies, which emphasises the active participation of the patient, can help to create a powerful healing force in the world."
He added: "Many of today's complementary therapies are rooted in ancient traditions that intuitively understood the need to maintain balance and harmony with our minds, bodies and the natural world. "Much of this knowledge, often based on oral traditions, is sadly being lost, yet orthodox medicine has so much to learn from it."
Ah well, back to the outer darkness.
