Hmmm, I remember there being a "science" back in the late 1800s and early
1900s called prhenology, where they felt for the bumps and contours on your
head and determined if you would be a criminal, concert pianist,
industrialist, etc.
Stehen Jay Gould wrote a book called The Mismeasure of Man which talked about
phrenology and other "sciences". Maybe we can send a copy to Danny :-).
