You know how I'm always talking about how there's a 75% decrease in your chance of Alzheimer's if you're a ballroom dancer? How ballroom dancing, bridge, chess, and puzzles are your best defense?
Add reading to that. A 32% less chance for lifelong readers.

And then there's the glow-in-the-dark tree gang. I was swamped in the spring, so I missed all the Kickstarters including this one, but we're talking almost a half-million dollars to develop trees that could replace street lights, giving us a soft, ambient glow to a nighttime street.

As he says, the scary stuff will eventually arise. For now, we get glowing cats and small trees!
In the meantime? Read a book.
