"I have an earache."

2000 BC - "Here, eat this root."

1000 AD - "That root is heathen; say this prayer."

1850 AD - "That prayer is superstition; drink this potion."

1940 AD - "That potion is snake oil; swallow this pill."

1985 AD - "That pill is ineffective; take this antibiotic."

2004 AD - "That antibiotic is artificial. Here, eat this root."
