And I do know what happens if you play a country song backwards, but don't feel that I am the one to tell you!

Can country music drive you to suicide?

The Ig Nobel award for medicine—one of the prizes given annually to scientists who have produced unusual research—was given this year to a team of researchers who had found that cities in which radio stations played a higher than average amount of country music had higher than average suicide rates.

The award went to Steven Stack of Wayne State University, Michigan, and James Gundlach of Auburn University, Alabama, for their report, The Effect of Country Music on Suicide. Dr Stack protested to the BMJ that it was unfair of Newsweek to call him and his colleague "academic coneheads."

Not only criminal, but there is hard evidence that it makes you suicidal.

I once lived next door to a Jim Reeves fan who played "Distant Drums" on the dot at 11.45 pm every night - Creepy!!!

Huh? What's the problem? The neighbours complained about the volume, not about the type of music.
