I got this off of Chris who writes “Rants from the angry white guy” on the “West Virginia Surf Report”. It’s too good not to share.

Tons of money were spent to investigate the following:

Children who snore frequently were more likely to struggle with their schoolwork than were children who rarely snore

But there’s still no cure for cancer.

In a new wrinkle on how females develop mate preferences, female wolf spiders chose males whose courtship shows resembled displays they had seen when young

But there’s still no cure for cancer.

After more than a decade of work, an international team found the main gene that separates the girls from the boys among honeybees

But there’s still no cure for cancer.

A genetic survey indicated that about 1 in every 12 men in Asia and 1 in 200 worldwide, harbors a form of the Y chromosome tied to Genghis Khan or the men of his armies

But there’s still no cure for cancer.

The wide brims that some ancient trilobites grew over their eyes strongly suggested that at least some species of the aquatic creatures were active during the daytime nearly 400 million years ago

But there’s still no cure for cancer.

The first measurements of how people's bodies scatter sound waves indicated that, acoustically, a human body resembles an elongated chicken egg

But there’s still no cure for cancer.

And guess what???? Mars is red and covered with rocks!!!!!!

But there’s still no cure for cancer.

Who decides where the money for research goes and when will that job be taken away from that person? I have doubts that a cure for cancer will ever be found in my lifetime, or my children’s. Not when the government is granting money to study aquatic sea creatures eye brims from 400 million years ago.
