Go ahead and ask him. If he has evidence of pheromones being released by humans, he'll be eligible for major prizes in biology, since nobody else has been able to do it yet. Does he actually claim this? If so, he's an even bigger idiot than I had thought (which is pretty hard).

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
