Widespread panic


This is intriguing.
Apparently, we are a people programmed to worry; and if we don't have something to worry about, we FIND something. About 10 years ago, at a wedding rehearsal dinner, I was seated next to a woman I knew pretty well. She stated, flat-out, that she was currently worried about bears--as in, the kind that attack. The city where she lived is nowhere near a bear habitat. And even if it were, she didn't exactly reside in the woods.
Which I guess makes the point of this study.
What do you think, Internet?
