While reading article The mere presence of your smartphone reduces brain power, study shows -- ScienceDaily[^] from the daily news emails of codeproject, i wanted to comment the lickly connection to things like, "Don't think about a pink elephant! What you thinking about?"

And wanted to add the subject line. Or another way to phrase it, "We are going to take a maths test. Oh and don't worry, there are no spiders in the walls."

?? Why would the examiner say there are no spiders? Were there spiders before? What if the spiders come back? How did they check that there are no spiders IN the wall? OH, MY, Gs, they are lying, there are spiders in the wall"

Straw Poll

Were you affected by the geomagnetic storms this past weekend?
Communication disruptions, electrified pipes, random unexplained blue-screens in Windows - the list of effects is terrifying.
