- blasdel 17y agoDISREGARD THAT HE EATS CROW 1) The vending machine doesn't exist in the way it's presented 2) He never actually performed substantive experiments 3) The few trials he actually did were total failures * and mostly involved captive crows, indoors! 4) What little real research exists is not his * The actual researchers divorced themselves from him 5) He's a new media douchebag in ITP at NYU, not a biologist of any sort The whole thing is Gladwellian just-so bullshit on so many levels, and the hype from the NYT and TED really pushed it over the top.
