Shoemaker & Associate's office seems to be his home. I'd like to know if his two associates, much younger women, go to his home to work or do they also work out of their homes? It looks like kind of a cheesy way to do business, considering his website would make you think that he's got a swank office with a view of the Lincoln Memorial or the Capitol. Google his office address and then go to Google maps, or better yet Zillow.com, which will show you the value of his home/office and his neighbor's homes. There's something like an SUV parked next to the house if you go to the closest zoom magnification, but I don't know if that's Shoemaker's.
Oddizm, that's a good point. Of course, I don't know his address, and I'm barred from their website now!
And, the website just looks swank on the homepage of course!
Thanks for commenting on this.
I am one of the 100+ bloggers mentioned in item 5 of the subpoena.
I am keeping a running list of responses to the Seidel subpoena at I Speak of Dreams. I've added this post.
Personally, I'd suggest that people contacting the Shoemaker firm avoid the use of expletives and ad hominem attacks. Focus on the facts: there is no evidence that vaccination is correlated with autism, and the evidence is strong enough to suggest a lack of causation.
All good points, Liz. But, you know that Shoemaker's not going to listen. They are, as I said, vaccine-chasers, the modern equivalent of ambulance-chasers, and with as much pseudoscience as it hason the company website, you and I have about as much chance of changing Shoemaker's mind on this as George Bush's on global warming.
Update: I think Shoemaker was trying to prevent Seidel from finding out....the subjects of her two latest blog posts:
Billing the Adversary
Numerous decisions issued over the twenty year history of the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) document the extent to which the limits on attorney compensation have been tested by practitioners seeking remuneration from its taxpayer-financed coffers. The following review summarizes decisions involving the recently-sanctioned VICP specialist Clifford Shoemaker, Esq. -- a central instigator of the campaign to convince the public of the speculative, scientifically unsupported hypothesis that a significant number of cases of autism result from vaccine injury, co-founder of the Institute for Chronic Illnesses, and a founding member its Institutional Review Board, which sponsors and provides ethical oversight of medical research and experimentation on autistic children and adolescents conducted by his long-time colleague Dr. Mark Geier.
Inspecting the Outstretched Palm
The potential for procedural and billing improprieties by Vaccine Injury Compensation Program petitioners
’ attorneys — especially those representing numerous clients with similar, speculative claims — is made painfully evident in Special Master Denise Vowell’s recent fee and cost decision in Carrington v. HHS, Case 99-495V (Fed.Cl.Spec.Mstr., June 18, 200
(unpublished), posted to the U.S. Court of Federal Claims website three days ago.

Liz, thanks much.
Two points I immediately notice.
One is the level of greed in this vaccine-chasing bastard.
The second is... the "recently sanctioned."
