When
it comes to charity, people in Mississippi (the poorest state
per capita in the Union) donate more money to charity than any
other state. Massachusetts has once again finished dead last
for the fourth time in six years. All of this vital

Index."

Here's a little self-explanatory graph which I am going
to ask Theresa to reproduce in this newsletter about the cost
of postage. (Now that does have something to do with
direct mail, wouldn't you agree?)

MIT
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology) is now developing
computer systems which use biorythmetic sensors attached to
the user's body and tiny cameras that record facial gestures
to develop individual emotional profiles. When a user becomes
uninterested, frustrated or bored, the software automatically
adjusts to something else.

Americans lose their virginity at the youngest average
age in the world, that being 16.4. We have sex more often than
people in other countries... 132 times a year on average. The
Russians come in second with 122 times a year on average and,
the French follow in third place with 121 times and, the Greek
are next with 115. The Japanese are at the bottom of the list,
making love only 37 times a year.

The article continues saying the average number
of partners in a lifetime is 8.2. However, the United States
is listed as being the most promiscuous with 16.7 partners.
This study also says Brazilians are only third when it comes
to how many sex partners they have.
