Merge into "Pneumatic school"? edit

I see that the fabulous Singinglemon has started a page on the Pneumatic school of medicine. I'm not sure this stub now serves any purpose; however, it does seem to contain info that the other article does not. Perhaps it should be merged? Cynwolfe (talk) 21:08, 28 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Who are you calling fabulous? I'm going to call you amazing, see how you like it! Bah! :-) As to the rather more important matter of whether this article deserves its own page, I'm inclined to say that it does. The Pneumatic school specifically concerns a Roman-era school of medicine; and Vital heat is a different concept to Pneuma. I suppose it depends on whether something more can be said about the history and practice of pneuma in ancient medicine. Singinglemon (talk) 00:24, 20 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
