I'd love to test that hypothesis some day... especially if you consider the need for an increased sample size. the Schroedinger effect: the higher the per capita population density of physicists in a particular town, the lower the per capita cats to humans ratio.

Also: no need to bash it just cause you don't get it, just click that stumble button again. Awesome. Also: no need to bash it just cause you don’t get it, just click that stumble button again.
