mental_floss is becoming a wildly popular magazine, so that’s the only reason I informed you guys of this. I don’t want new readers of the magazine to read only rubbish of the pseudo-intellectuals whom frequent the blog.
By the way, I’m sorry if that was a lame initial comment of mine on the board. But, I’m a longtime reader of the site; I’m a student at the University of Georgia and I am strongly considering applying at the Mises Institute for grad school.
