I love the finding that coed dorms lead to more sex amongst college students. I heard some people on the radio discussing this like it was a revelation and had to laugh.

For overall mortality, 11 percent of deaths in men and 16 percent of deaths in women could be prevented if people decreased their red meat consumption

Radio hosts? Of *course* it was a revelation...to them.

Do you think they *ever* got lucky in college? /sarc>

Scientists found that kids' movies promote the idea of heterosexual love, while leaving out any mention of homosexual relationships.

I am actually surprised at this one. I'm sure that won't be true for long. I imagine obama has someone working on it right now. The Childrens' Entertainment Sexual Identity Freedom Requirement Act.
