Summary
A case is made for the need to carry out new provings, despite the fact that many colleagues find it hard enough studying the ones that we have already. Research is one of the qualities of true science. Some of Hahnemann's statements that back up this opinion are quoted. To justify this point of view, a case of Lac lupinum, a newly proved remedy, is presented.
