Well, the Daily Mail, which is where this link is from, is a British website, not American. The url is ".uk" And is it really any surprise that it would have an article with zero scientific basis when other headlines there include: "The Spice Girls are already at each other's throats with Posh demanding star billing." And then stuff about Liz Hurley on vacation, Posh Spice changing her hair color to brunette, and some other British starlet named Katie Price, aka "Jordan," England's equivalent of Pamela Anderson?
There are valid news sites and then there are tabloid sites. It would be a mistake to think that a tabloid sites represents real news. They never have, and smart people know that and don't actually read them, let alone take them seriously. And for the Americans who would actually be reading a British tabloid site to get the real news and actual scientific articles.....well, I guess we don't really need to worry about them. !!
