Hops Lovers Will Be So Pleased

From the NYT:
For Scientists, a Beer Test Shows Results as a Litmus Test

Article Tools Sponsored By
By CAROL KAESUK YOON
Published: March 18, 2008

Ever since there have been scientists, there have been those who are wildly successful, publishing one well-received paper after another, and those who are not. And since nearly the same time, there have been scholars arguing over what makes the difference.

What is it that turns one scientist into more of a Darwin and another into more of a dud?

After years of argument over the roles of factors like genius, sex and dumb luck, a new study shows that something entirely unexpected and considerably sudsier may be at play in determining the success or failure of scientists — beer.


Czechs, who's country was where the study was performed, i think are the biggest beer consumers in the world.... and yes they are: http://www.realbeer.com/discussions/showthread.php?threadid=14345.

But wait until the same study is done for wine drinkers biggrin

(might it just be the alcohol content to release more of the free flowing thought?)
