Lounge of Tomorrow

Just read a cool article on the Ig-Nobel awards for strange studies. Some stuff is kinda cool. Some stuff you'd guess at but someone's actually taken the trouble to prove it, such as strippers earning more when they're ovulating.

We should clone them

BTW, did you know the last bald president was Eisenhower, 50 years ago. If McCain were elected it would be quite the shakeup. (Biden has plugs.)
