Ranting to /dev/null

Not much to say...

Life progresses. Work is good, or at least having work is good.

I ran across this article on TCS today, which points out a rather interesting notion: obesity rates are inversely proportional to income. Oddly enough, it's the poor that are getting fat, not the rich. The poorer you are, the more likely you are to be fat. Why is this? The article suggests that "wealthier individuals tend to take a bigger responsibility for their health and bodies," a suggestion that rings true. Poorer people are also more likely to consume cheap food, which tends to be unhealthy and come in larger quantities than more expensive fare.

Okay, it's not that profound, but it's all I've got for the moment.
