“Good news”:http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk_news/story/0,3604,1010175,00.html, on the assumption that formal semantics is a science: according to a “study”:http://www.jrsm.org/cgi/content/abstract/96/8/384 just published in the Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, scientists live longer than people in the arts & humanities.

bq. [The Guardian summarizes:] For a long life, study science. For the best chance of an alcohol-related death, try medicine, dentistry or the veterinary sciences. If low blood pressure is an ambition, enrol on a divinity course.
