Traffic police are not profiling SUVs driven by mothers under the influence of cell phones.Unfortunately. 4. TRUTH. In Brazil, a program installed in laptop computers is dispensing justice on the streets--minutes after a traffic incident takes place. After pulling over the driver, police alert a member of the Rapid Justice team, who arrives on the scene with the computer. Answers to straightforward questions like "Did the driver stop at the red light?" are fed into the laptop. The computer then prints out a judgment, gives its reasoning and even recommends a jail sentence if needed (source: Thanx to "Adelle" for alerting us to this story from BBC News online). 5. TRUTH. Anthropologists in Tanzania have discovered signs of toothpick use at a site where human remains dating back as far as 1.8 million years have been unearthed. The researchers say toothpicks became common about the same time early man began eating meat. The tool consisted of bone or grit attached to a stick (source: American Association of Physical Anthropology). It took another 1.799 million years or so to add mint flavoring:) 6. TRUTH. Another bunch of scientists just completed a study of baby talk around the world. They found that babies make the same pattern of sounds, whether they live in Europe, Japan, South America or elsewhere. Even more astounding, these sounds resemble what linguists think may have been the original human language--the first one invented by primitive humans. The reason why babies and cavemen talk alike? The sounds are easy to make, say researchers from the University of Texas (source: Science magazine).
