Easter, and Peeps

If you've never seen this before, you really must check out the Peep Research Site: http://www.peepresearch.org. A really fantastic site, take the time when you have a couple minutes for a good laugh at the wonderful "scientific" research these fine people have done regarding Peeps (those popular marshmallow bird-shaped treats only available at Easter time). Includes a dramatic demonstration of the Peep "fear response", and general reactions to cold, heat, water, and more! This site has been around a VERY LONG time, I'm glad to see it's still up and running!

(If you want to check out the official Peeps website, with info on its history, etc., it's here: http://www.marshmallowpeeps.com)
