Tall people = RockStars
This article confirms it. Tall people are better than short people. I'm glad I'm taller than most - but not so tall that I'm a giantess.
In more digg news this article makes the most asinine argument on the plant. Is poor health caused by poor socio-economic status, or by poor socio-economic status. The doctors make the argument that poor people have worse health than those lower on the totem poll. Refuting the argument that those low on the totem poll have poor health. It's like arguing which came first the chicken or the egg? The problem is that this is a classist problem - not necessarily a true cash problem. People with lower socio-economic status have poor health. Is it because they can't pay or because they were raised in a way where minor health problems were ignored, is it because they have little control over their lower level job, or is it because they work too much to be able to find time to go to a doctor? It doesn't matter - it's probably a combination of all of these. It's like they forgot that it's socio-economic status - implies both the social status and the economic status. I think it's stupid to try separate the two.
