Homeopathy Cannot Work in Principle

Homeopathy not only doesn't work but cannot work because its dilutions are so extreme—the most 'effective' dose, by James Randi's calculation, would contain one molecule in a volume of water equal to the volume of the solar system—so selling it mingled among real remedies under labels like 'cough' or 'flu' is misleading and warrants legal action.
