So the moral is: Eat more chocolates for big rewards. (I'm in!)

Or move to a country where they eat lots of chocolate (in other words, a country not too far from Sweden...)

I'm sorry. Call me a curmudgeon (or worse) and you will probably be right. I'm sure that is a correlation graph somewhere to prove it.

But, I've lost much of my respect for the Nobel Prize as I've seen too many highly questionable awards in my lifetime. :fanfare: :fanfare: :flee:

Of course not! I have 2 squares of Lindt or Ghiardelli dark chocolate with at least 72% cocoa every day.

Thank you, Paul, but I only earned 28 badges before I discovered young ladies.

I DO like the number 42, though!
