And Michael doctor woody Woodward an occupational psychologist.
But tech doctor you -- now I know.
Our radar first degree Perkins I think when Germantown.
Are now labeled.
For men and women and I'm not kidding about this land this -- is for females are closer to the exit OK well let's OK well -- And wider.
Wider her while the marketing -- -- -- are tighter.
And surrounded by Keller and so many jokes and I'm not doing any of them the -- of Freiburg Germany says it's part of a new marketing strategy to promote tourism.
It only -- -- -- about sixty dollars while they typically spent more than 60000.
A year to promote this city.
Now when I heard an admit that this was about -- because look here we are talking about it and that people drive their to see the signs.
I realize that he's a genius at the same time.
I think he's also wildly incorrect yes I mean Ireland and a lot of the kitchen for the better -- -- this -- -- could turn off my.
Yeah you're quite right here this is basically the sense like get from this guy right we can't think for sales -- -- park god forbid we need to look in the rearview mirror slide into a tight spot we're gonna hit a pillar.
Right look out I don't know I think that that's completely alike about the the space is Melissa.
Is Natalie that there wider great whatever who cares -- that I like the fact that.
They -- well lit.
Yeah by the exit -- -- out of there real quick so this the tablets best known for cuckoo clocks there's a little something every there he said that the tight spaces.
The spots are tough to park in one what's driving reversed obviously I can't -- -- reverse I mean I'm a woman.
But I didn't -- -- out.
I heard by the women -- -- -- to public plead the fifth on this -- what I worry your daily sales you know it was about safety and I think he's concerned -- -- -- -- you -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- It's yeah.
No I think -- -- putting women closer to the exits I think he's concerned -- you know it did just in case or could be.
Shady people wandering in the garage your clothes and exits I think it's all of us and I -- -- -- to try to get people to death.
There yeah but.
We women do all the planning -- family vacations when -- element that's right yes I now -- they don't take my SEB and -- it right on top of this guy anyway bottom line is there are reasons -- that -- -- and that is genius and I -- -- -- few points that next story.
A federal hears appeals court ruled on Tuesday -- -- came -- -- there's going to be a mayor Michael Bloomberg.
Can not -- stores selling tobacco to -- graphic images.
Like this one of rotting ones the -- -- -- up.
In 1965.
-- the federal government exclusive authority over smoking warnings Mayor Bloomberg instituted his policy.
Hope you reduce the number of smokers but he -- think these signs.
But actually stop people from smoking also don't remember doesn't want us to drink a lot of soda I don't know -- he's so worried about nice nice guy like.
Understand -- to desire to educate consumers but.
I'm not a fan of regulation to try to get to change our habits we all know that smoking is very bad for -- we know that over -- very bad for you we still do a lot of both right yeah in a down economy or overeating -- -- if you look around New York City you'll see there's a high and a -- of smokers all latest -- kerosene to -- the -- by the fact you can't -- will -- on anywhere these days but.
There are out there is an addiction if you're addicted the signs -- gonna stop you maybe if your kid going into -- and human being and nonetheless this to be the same as going to fast food restaurants and putting pictures of morbidly obese people in front and the for.
-- -- -- -- I'm not really a right it's no different it's about a choice and I would go now well yeah well but is it any different really I don't think so.
Did you got -- -- we're actually are now in favor of doing that really I just had Jack I'm not Bennett ever doubt we've I think yeah.
-- -- especially -- a black greatly our next story.
What.
Favorite web site stay about say about your political ties trends that are -- Thousand crunch trend -- okay that's an -- -- thousands of likes from their users and found that people who frequent commercial and personal finance sites.
Like PayPal and eBay and Amazon.
Tend to be more Republican while zappos -- at Angry Birds users are typically Democrats.
I C I I just already because I'd never played Angry Birds.
And live on zappa I love is ambulance hair and left out but -- Angry Birds I mean what a waste of time when -- -- I think a couple of different things first of all the the backing of this poll is -- concern -- -- have to sort of factor that into your the world really not human they're still my general I kinda thing you want -- patterns and that what was we as we don't know we don't know the other thing that's for me.
Yeah I.
-- very I can't imagine what it.
Another thing -- Brothers find more relevant is that with FaceBook users all over the map a lot of people like a lot of different things they are on.
They have all different agendas on -- but they're always looking their time -- -- you're not a not working.
What Google like that stupid things and the like everything.
So I think that that's a factor into the equation to lake who you know what -- these people doing all along.
What we here's what's Anderson right yeah as you mentioned users of eBay tend to lean right uses of Yelp ten million left that's -- she found in the article in her own -- church.
Uses of -- tend to contribute to spend money.
Uses of Yeltsin's complain about spending not obvious brought up there was interesting this is based on her research and they are there.
That can be added to any dental care products like toothpaste are down to totally prevent tooth decay supposedly kills all cavity causing bacteria -- -- sixty seconds.
It would keep routine cavity free for several hours researchers say it could be available in and year and a half.
I mean it seems like this would put -- out of business but I also wonder if it -- blows out cavities -- sixty seconds.
What else what else that's because I understand manic or out of it thing I mean 70% of us have cavities -- we all have this problem right get cavities I have a few cap I want -- -- -- -- one you've got the perfect -- well known fact I just want cavity it really imperfect.
I -- it -- it be nice to never evidenced again a dissolution the putting this chemical in your mouth.
'cause it yet I don't so I'd you what similar it just doesn't work quite it didn't -- can put in anything like food products -- and they haven't.
The -- chemical.
Is about what what I think the real story here is say this actually works.
We're gonna find the Dennis to do the -- recommends for the package attitude that Dennis -- gaming they decided Donald community carrying -- you know how to torture.
On that happy no we're gonna bring this up very giving and then Michael doctor what are you worried go out of park their cars we're gonna yeah.
I could see who's doing about a -- I'm still mad about that alibi and.
