Strange Correlation?

I saw that article, wasn't the Mountaineer's phone number at the bottom with a schedule of Basic Climbing courses?

I pretty much made that one up as I stared out the window trying to find new ways to procrastinate and avoid working. I could easily imagine "I hope it's not contagious" being associated with Mounties Basic courses though. ha!

SEATTLE, WA A recent study of workplace effectiveness has shown a marked decrease in worker productivity inversely proportional to sunlight intensity. Apparently, workers have an increased occurence of staring out the window or daydreaming on sunny days. Many are often seen making plans to go outdoors, or call in sick when many rain-free days are predicted in a row. "This climbing thing is like some kind of plague." said the author of the study, who preferred to remain anonymous. He continued to say, "I hope it's not contagious."
