 k> [usual Ford Prefect dribblings snipped for sanity's sake]

Fans everywhere I go...

 k> On this morning's [Monday, 25 September 1995] front page of the
 k> _Independent_, there is an article entitled 'Testosterone Levels
 k> Rise When Footballers Score' (that's soccer for the Merkins).

...or "boot hockey" to the Canadians.

 k> This reports the results of a study by two psychologists from
 k> Georgia State University who studied the average levels of
 k> testosterone in Brazilian and Italian fans both before and after
 k> last year's World Cup final.

This premise has great SitCom potential.

 k> Obviously, the behaviour of American football fans in the US and
 k> other football fans would be uncorrelated, so that we may draw no
 k> conclusions about post-match domestic violence by Superbowl fans.

Nope.  See previous post in thread about the source article.
