> Now here comes the big problem -- I don't have a better idea. Dr. Bob is right that my just let them read it and sign it (when we know they won't read it) is not informed consent. Even if that happens in a lot of contexts in the real world (both on line and off), doesn't make it "right." Unless Dr. Bob begins to interview each person who wants to join Psycho-Babble, there has to be a process that he can use to judge whether a person has some concept of what's going on. I hate the quiz idea -- I still think there has to be a better way. But I am still racking my brain to come up with that idea.

Perhaps if people are unable to read a short para and answer some questions correctly, they may not benefit from this forum. It is in written form and requires the same skills.
