    The study consisted of one question by Gallagher … “If your knees bent the other way, what would a chair look like?”

    What if um and uh were flipped to mu and hu. That would make women cows (moo) and men owls (who).

    The world is a wide array of variables. With enough study, one may find anything and have sufficient statistical evidence to back it up. It is only a matter of looking in the right places.

    It’s just a matter of time before the overlords catch their mistake and exclude “Frog Applause” from any reindeer games.

    So what’s next, Brass Orchid? A story about sailing out in search of an elusive white whale? A trip down the Mississippi on a raft with a runaway slave? Something about a murdered mockingbird? Or perhaps a tale of a witty and vivacious English girl hoping for a good marriage?

    Does anyone wonder what this study cost us? So far, we’re probably the only ones who have made use of this information.
