Jim Norman Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Yes, the money that is spent doing scientific research is money well spent. Just look at these examples. Meth can harm an unborn child. Bullies pick on unpopular kids. Smoking a lot of weed is bad for you. Friendless kids are sad. Guys prefer casual sex to dating. Sitting in front of the TV all day can make a teen fat. Novel way to lose weight: Eat less and exercise more. Caffeine affects kids' sleep. Kids who study abroad drink more alcohol. Now if only I could get a grant to study something, hmmmmm. Maybe a couple million to study the eye hand motor coordination in D class vs GM class shooters? Which group as a whole has the better coordination? Should be worth something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
