Here's the article by the same author from 5 years ago, the first time this city boy learned about the this particular horror of nature and the wonders of modern science and infrastructure.

Unfortunately, not a gift article, but you get at east one free article a month, best of my understanding. It's a good one.

@theregister "potemkin understanding"

That is gold.

Kudos to researchers from MIT, Harvard and the university of Chicago for the term, as well as to the Register for sharing it with us.

Uuuuuunfortunately, probably not.

Both of those guys are chill and, most importantly, thoughtful. By 'thoughtful' I mean an ability to see cause and effect patterns.

A rare skill nowadays, especially if we're talking about 'political' issues.

@ScienceScholar ... or may not.

Now that I have actually read the article, it seems that the main message is "Don't eat dairy products, especially before going to bed, if you're lactose intolerant."

I appreciate this type of delivery, it is much better than "Scientists have proven that cheese causes nightmares!!!", yet it still could be improved on.
