Quick Links

Here are some pieces so interesting I’m at a loss for further commentary:
- A map of the 2004 election, better than the ones you’ve seen before.
- “In fact, the divorce rate has been falling continuously over the past quarter-century . . .”
- The clever scheme to fund the Ansari X-Prize
- “Did Tea Drinking Lead to Urbanization?”
- In 2005, US forces shot 250,000 bullets for every insurgent killed.

Thanks for that piece on divorce.
Indeed, that is a good statistic to file away.
I’m curious if the peak in the 70s relates to when many states were implmenting “No Fault” divorce options. After all, if neither of the members of a marriage want to tag themselves as at fault in court documents it may have been easier to stay married and live seperated.
