People in B-C are ALSO from a different planet...

There are only a few things that never cease to amaze me... one is the ridiculous studies that people actually get research grants to perform, and the ludicrous conclusions they reach from the results...

...case in point...

Recently, a group of animal psychologists from the University of Victoria wanted to find out how dogs use their tails to communicate with one another.

So they set up a ROBOTIC DOG in a public park and had it wag its tail in several different ways . . . to the left, to the right, and directly in the center. Then they observed as real dogs approached the robot to see if they were hesitant or seemed cautious.

What they found is that overall, 56% of the dogs approached the robot without hesitation when it was wagging its tail to the LEFT.

But when the robot was wagging its tail to the RIGHT, just 21% of the dogs approached it without hesitation.

According to the researchers (apparently under the supervision of their professor, Dr. Who), the study proves that when dogs are at their happiest, they'll wag their tail to the left.

...three questions...

A) Who Cares?...

B) How much of my tax money went toward building the robotic dog?... and, of course,

C) Where do I apply for a job as a researcher?...
