I personally suspect that it's the closest to reality, but there's a surprising lack of readily available research on the matter when googling. <br /><br />Can you provide any sources to help those of us who want to convince our skeptical friends a little more completely ?<br /><br />Thanks for the article!<br /><br />PaulAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
