Open to any rational debunking of this "news". Could not find any in a cursory google search.

Seems to me it would make more sense to make contraceptive beer. We could end alcoholism as a heritable problem in a generation. If you can't stay sober, you can't have kids. Also, the birthrate for college age would likely plummet... then, when you are really ready, stop drinking long enough, and reproduce at will.

Ofcourse there will probably also be a rise in time of people who are immune to the effects... natural selection and all....

Sounds like a spoof piece. Maybe they've been trying it out on the Maize and Blue of Michigan.

  Most of the depopulation of Michigan is by expatriates like myself ... to Florida.

    Does that partly explain the relative success of college football in Florida?

      Not really, because the Michigan expatriates to Florida are senior citizens. The success of college football in Florida is because of the longer playing season.

        Ah, its the grandchildren visiting Florida in the winter that brings the young eventually to universities there. ;^)

  Not smart enough to be satire, this is entirely a site dedicated to propagating the myth that bio-genetics is bad.

    Like most things, some are good, some are bad. We must be aware of both.
