very pertinent to this listserv, so read below and enjoy! :)

For those of us who enjoyed the Uncyclopedia definition of a geologist, or
(gasp!) even identified with it, Carol Kaesuk Yoon of the New York Times
(look under Science) is reporting on a study purporting to show a strong
negative relationship between beer drinking and productivity as measured
by publication rate.

And that's ANY beer drinking at all, not just drinking to excess.

Of course, that's correlation, not causation.  But still.... Yikes!
