     @bubbajet @dogzilla
     I agree, it’s very important to check common sense with careful research and treat it as important news even when it’s merely confirmed.

     @dogzilla @inthehands It’s easy to make fun of this study, but the fact is it’s *the first of its kind.* Sure, it’s blindingly obvious. But there must be studies, facts, provable stuff, before we can get laws passed.

     Yes, there are those that don’t care about facts. (looking at you, MTG) But some do. Must. Have. Proof. First.

     We need more of this. Much more.
