A link to the "CIDPUSA" site ( http://www.cidpusa.org/ ) was added by an IP several revisions back. This is not an information resource like the others, but is mainly a collection of materials advocating the unsupported hypotheses of one doctor. It is also a bit deceptive because at first glance it appears to represent a national association in the United States, but as far as I can tell it actually represents a clinic in Lahore. I don't think it belongs with the other links, but I'm willing to listen with an open mind to arguments in its favour. Badinfinity (talk) 23:40, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Much of the material at the site seems to be just poorly-written text that's housing ads for an e-book. I'd say dump it. --CliffC (talk) 01:59, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
Went ahead and removed the link. If the IP wants to reinstate it I would look for a convincing argument. Badinfinity (talk) 06:38, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
