I grew up in DC. My young classmates told stories of the fascinating specimens to be seen there, but my parents wouldn't take me. When I figured that my daughters were old enough, I took them there. They were grossed out and didn't want to stay! Have I raised wimps, or is it just a guy thing to want to look at body parts floating in formaldehyde?
Bobblehead said what I thought when I first saw this story. I have seen it in several places and none of them mention the parent/child relationship even though they all clearly mention the bedtime was set by the parents. Whatever the reason, my 16year old daughter just told us she'll be going to bed earlier because of this study! We'll see how long it lasts.
Can't the profs at the University of Delaware think of anything more practical for their state? The highest point in Delaware is 448 feet (ivory tower not included). If I was a Delaware resident I would walk over to the school to complain.
As an artsy gimmick it is cool. I suspect it would cause more accidents than it prevents. What display technology does it use? I can't think of any which are durable enough for this use.

I wonder how much power the magnetic levitation circuit wastes. Just because something can be built doesn't mean it should be. Let's have more Neat and less Orama.
Original sin was invented to shame or scare decent people into giving money to the churchm Regardless of your belief in a higher power, any religion which functions by threatening people with eternal damnation and promising eternal pleasure should be viewed with suspicion.
If I told you that my religion teaches "The apple told the serpent to eat Eve, and therefore all animals are sinners" you would think I was crazy.
What is the proper tip for a bed warmer? Do you pay more if the room is colder, or if the warmer has more heat?

Too bad it wasn't a mirror.
