It's a surprising finding, but that's science all over: the results
are often counterintuitive. And that's exactly why you do scientific
research, to check your assumptions. Otherwise it wouldn't be called
"science", it would be called "assuming", or "guessing", or "making it
up as you go along". -- Ben Goldacre
