The Men's Retreat

Recalling that Bertie Wooster attributed Jeeves' intellect to eating lots of fish (he overlooked reading Spinoza before breakfast), the following New York Times headline caught my eye: "Does Eating Salmon Lower the Murder Rate?" Seems some certified spart people at Georgia Tech found that high intake of Omega 3 fatty acids correlates with lower rates of violence. (But I thought the lower rates of violence in Georgia were because they had more guns; see: John Lott--Ed. Yes, but perhaps they are using those guns to shoot the salmon they eat, thus confounding the statisticians.)
