Re: Highly important paper!
Isn't the relationship probably more like the intermediate disturbance hypothesis? Productivity would seem to increase with increasing alcohol consumption up to a point, before then decreasing with further increases in consumption. Certainly many of the beer-fueled discussions I've had at meetings have taken that trajectory. Now, if I could just find that point of maximum productivity... Probably requires more observations.

I offer a related speculation; the number of sent emails is inversely related to the same independent variable. So, what's going on over at the World HQ?
