This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Whoever made the poll asked the right questions.

Probably. The poll center's page for the study says "No. of Variables: 68" (unfortunately you have to be a member to download the results) and the CNN article has a few that aren't in OP's list.
