COMPUTING POSES HEALTH RISK
My friend, David Ward, sent me to a story in The Australian: "New Zealand researchers have found that sitting at a computer for hours on end can cause fatal blood clots, just as long flights can lead to deep vein thrombosis (DVT), known as economy-class syndrome... They suggest the condition be called 'e-thrombosis'". If there is any consolation in this story it is that David will probably go first since he actually makes a living out of being a geek.
