Scientists will study anything that earns grant money, it appears.  Popular Science’s article Science Confirms the Obvious! is a list of no-duh studies and what their researchers had to say about it. 

I’m in accord with #3’s findings that too many meetings are considered a hassle.  I can count on one hand the meetings I’ve attended that left me feeling productive; I’d be counting the hairs of my head if I added up the ones that were a complete waste of time.  But curiosity prompts the question, would the other folks sitting in on my few ‘productive’ meetings have listed it as a waste of time?

After reading #5, which takes a look at relationship between blurred vision and percieved attraction, I should think an uneasy beau would hide his lady’s glasses and pour her contact’s down the drain, then-and only then-would it be safe to pull out the roses and pop the question.

The multi-tasking age disparity noted in #8 doesn’t sound like it was given on even ground.  It’s my guess that your average twenty-year-old has been multi-tasking since s/he first popped Cheerios while playing LeapFrog and watching Baby Einstein, all while riding in the car, keeping tabs on mommy and listening to sibs.  The rising generation is generally pretty game savvy, too, but how many of the seventy-year-old participants play computer games?

According to the last portion, old dogs can learn new tricks, so what they should do is take the 70-year-olds aside and teach them the game, then give them another shot at the multitasking test.
