Need I comment that the higher SES of museum visitors is probably related to
good diet and adequate healthcare, and that the covariance on these factors
would need to be partitioned before even considering whether or not there was
any causal connection beyond this economic priviledge?

Hi all,

Here's a tidbit I came across this morning:

"Fifteen years ago researchers tat the University of UMEA inSweden asked
12,000 people how often they went to museums. When researchers checked
bacvk ten years later, only 67 of the respondents who visited museums
regularly had died, compared to 399 of those who rarely or never went."
