Oops!

You know, it's not so much the findings that are surprising here, rather the emphasis that the media put on all this stuff. Every time there's a new study, the stories that detail them stop just short of saying "Do this NOW or You Will Die".

So I guess for folks with a few grains of common sense and a healthy skepticism there's no real new discoveries here. For the rest of y'all out there, methinks you might do well to apply a smoothing filter to most these studies before applying them as input to your control loop which hopefully employs some sort of negative feedback mechanism.

That is all.
