An update to my previous message claiming Maureen Weston is the record-holder at 19 days.
The Neuroscience for Kids website at http://faculty.washington.edu/chudler/tt.html cites the Maureen Weston claim (given as 18 days) but cites a later claim in the 1990 Guinness Book of World Records for Robert McDonald, who went for 453 hours, 40 minutes (= 18.9 days), also in a rocking chair. -Stephen ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stephen Black, Ph.D. tel: (819) 822-9600 ext 2470 Department of Psychology fax: (819) 822-9661 Bishop's University e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Lennoxville, QC J1M 1Z7 Canada Department web page at http://www.ubishops.ca/ccc/div/soc/psy Check out TIPS listserv for teachers of psychology at: http://www.frostburg.edu/dept/psyc/southerly/tips/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
