Metal Owls

Don’t you love it when surveys confirm your own prejudices :-) A few years back I came across a Times article about how Night Owls were the wiser (I think based on this Science article), condemning the dim-witted Larks with one well-aimed comparison (Churchill = Owl, Blair = Lark).

Now there’s another marvelous survey that claims that metal is the music of choice for our bright young things. Looking around our research labs at the assorted Goths and aging Rockers it seems they may have a point – unless there’s a secret disco room that no-one’s told me about. I shall mull it over late one night while listening to some Guns n Roses.
