    Well to be fair, that is measurable over human timescales - and is happening.

    If you knew what was happening, you'd shut up. It would mean the end of research grants.

    Good point - I'd like one of these to measure the effects of not eating chocolate on women, then I'd prove it was downright dangerous and hopefully thorntons would keep me going for life.
