My first comment from someone who I haven't pleaded a thousand times to read this blog, and it's the very same person the entry is about. I didn't think you'd actually find this tiny site, but cheers for doing so.<BR/><BR/>As for the method of cross-correlating seemingly boring statistics to create results of some interest or meaning... I'm a baseball fan, so I'm very used to the phenomenon.Danhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08432627271396472057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-123807539669941308.post-10388093026444831752008-08-04T14:58:00.000-04:002008-08-04T14:58:00.000-04:002008-08-04T14:58:00.000-04:00Hi Dan!<BR/><BR/>Yes, I did stumble across your site.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you enjoyed the Music/Booksthatmakeyoudumb. My goal was to demonstrate an example of combining two innocuous 'boring' sets of data into something interesting. However, I don't know how well this got across.Virgilhttp://virgil.grnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-123807539669941308.post-72871276046397370822008-07-29T09:17:00.000-04:002008-07-29T09:17:00.000-04:002008-07-29T09:17:00.000-04:00Hmm.. Licorice Pop.. Sound's tasty.<BR/><BR/>And what are you on about with Beethoven?!?! Mozart all the way! Well, not really, but Mozart is awesome too. As is Concerto for 2 Violins in D Minor by J.S. Bach.<BR/><BR/>But yeah, I fully support the theory that music can make you stupid. I like to think that I listen to enough of a nice variety (excluding rap because just eew) to keep my intelligence marginally high. But then again, I could be really stupid and not realize it.Whittershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01710057776671982346noreply@blogger.com
