  1. Re:This will probably not last on Google Tops 100 Best Places To Work · · Score: 1

    Realize that Google did some studies and crunched the numbers and found that the average engineer only takes a 28 min.lunch at the Googleplex and virtually never leaves the campus. They also found that without the free lunch, the typical lunch was almost 90 mins, including time spent gathering a group to go to lunch with off campus, and travel time back and forth. Far and away it is cheaper for them to spend lavishly on food in order to not lose that 62 minutes of productivity. (not to mention the intangibles of goodwill and increased retention.)

  6. Lost my sense of smell on Human Hibernation on the Horizon? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    After four years of daily exposure to HS during my time as a ammo "loader" in an Army artillery battery, my sense of smell is almost entirely gone. I can't smell anything noxious at all, and have to carefully control the conditions in order to be able pick up smells like perfume or coffee. So IMHO the olfactory nerve thing is very real.. Wish i could have hibernated through my foru years in the Army though...
