		<description>I am surprised that such a respected magazine like Discover is writing articles about this topic.  They should be covering events and issues that aren&#039;t so frivolous.  Don&#039;t they know that people are DYING of COMMUNISM?!</description>

		<description>Now that is truly exciting.  I would LOVE to know more, but where does one find these experiments and their results?  And what were the results on the monetary effects of gluing moustaches on things?  Any idea?</description>

		<description>It also has to do with the value of your own time as a measure of wealth.  I could have paid forty bucks to buy a cross stitch for my best friend&#039;s graduation from vet school.  Instead, I spent three years working on one from a kit when I had time, and then paid for a custom framing.  The result was not only something quite beautiful, but a labor of love and an investment of over a hundred hours of my time.  As a gift, it had more meaning than anything I could have bought from a store (and she now has it hanging in her office.)  With the Etsy and  Regretsy works, it&#039;s pretty easy to tell who seriously invested time in what they are selling and who spent ten minutes gluing crap together and calling it art. </description>

		<description>I thought they discovered this phenomenon years ago -- when they first made cake mixes, and people liked them a lot better if they had to add an egg than if they didn&#039;t.  </description>
