Re: Science Fair



Can you get us a reference on this:

An unrelated discussion with a colleague from the Psych department
yesterday, brought this up...

Classical music has beenshown to be beneficial for those who have had

Personally, I think there's not likely to be such a simple, one-to-one
connection either way.

This was reported _again_ on NPR within the past week or two.
