Last night I watched ABC News Primetime about game theory. One of the ways they demonstrated game theory was by having 5 volunteers (all overweight) agree to have their picture taken in a bikini which would by aired on national TV if they didn't lose 15 pounds in 2 months. All except 1 exceeded the weight loss requirement. It would be awesome if everyone could have access to such an effective motivator. Of course they didn't actually show the 1 woman's pictures on TV, it was just the threat of them being shown that did the trick. You'd think not fitting into clothes and mirrors would do the trick, but not really. It takes more extreme measures for the lazier types.
David Hasselhoff is one fine looking leprechaun. Mmmmmm.
