It's not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable. The hundred-times-refuted theory of "free will" owes its persistence to this charm alone; some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it - Friedrich Nietzsche

I remember reading somewhere that lots of peoplein Okinawa tend to live quite long lives; hadn't realised that it also applied to all of Japan. They do seem to ber far healthier than people from most other countries, especially America.
And I've wondered whether the North Korean leader may be mentally ill.
