Email or Marijuana - which is worse??
Email and other electronic communications temporarily lower your IQ significantly more than smoking pot does according to a recent study at London's Institute of Psychiatry, reports Red Herring Magazine.
Email and other distractions lower a worker's IQ an average of 10 points, which is the equivalaent drop of missing an entire nights sleep. Smoking marijuana however causes a temporary drop of only 4 points.
They didn't comment on Pot head email junkies, and I can offer little commentary as I'm only an email junkie.
However, I will take a stand as being 100% in support of Blogging While Drinking (BWD). While BWD can cause problems, just like anything done inappropriately or recklessly, in moderation it is an enjoyable pastime and usually far more productive than Watching TV While Smoking Cigarettes (WTVWSC), or Emailing While Stoned (EMS).
And to those that wonder, yes, I'm having a glass of wine, a 2001 Chateau Climens Sauternes.
Cheers!
