Pubic Hair & Ivory Tower Rant ,,, Go Gators!

So we're farmers, inventor/innovators and general hard workers but starving. Here's where the tax money goes:

"Based on studies of the evolution of pubic lice by David Reed at the Florida Museum of Natural History in Gainesville, Weiss suggests some time around 3.3 million years ago... is when human lice diverged from a closely related species found on the thick body hair of gorillas. This, Weiss suggests, could signal that while the rest of our bodies were naked by that time, we had evolved thick enough pubic hair for the lice to jump species and take hold."

You can bet that these researchers have nice offices, tenure, nice salaries, parking stickers, 401Ks and great health plans. We don't have that.
