In this respect, dogs are far more intelligent than humans. |

Haha, you show them, Young-hee! It's a doggy dog world, and if your pet tries to steal your food, you'll eat your own ing dog! |

The five-second rule was also featured in an episode of the Discovery Channel series MythBusters. There was no significant difference in the number of bacteria collected from 2 seconds exposure as there was from 6 seconds exposure. The moisture, surface geometry and the location the food item was dropped on did, however, affect the number of bacteria.

That show is about as scientific as a new age product demonstration. |

I've always said the five second rule. Although really, that's just a joke. It depends on the food and the surface it lands on, and the time the two meet for is irrelevant. |
I with this... 5 second rule (culture joke) but carpet or a freshly mopped floor makes all to different to me |

What is this Discovery channel you speak of? Please go into greater detail as I am not sure as to what you are referring to. |

Ignore me if I'm making a blunder, but wouldn't that be "as I am not sure as to what you are referring."?
:conf:
Or does that second "to" at the end really have its place there? |
