Experiments suggest that contagious yawning is related to a person's self-awareness and ability to see things from another person's view. In the words of Dr. Platek and his colleagues:

"Seeing or hearing about another person yawn may tap a primitive neurological substrate responsible for self-awareness and empathic modeling which produces a corresponding response in oneself."

So, are you a victim to contagious yawning? Do you have the uncontrollable earge to yawn when you see others do it? Does the mere sight of the word "yawn", make you yawn?

Be honest, if you just yawned, post a reply!

*yawn*

Oh man please help me, I can't stop yawning anymore. Could you please mail a method to stop yawning.

Scientists seem to have a lot of time to investigate such things. How about this :

That's bad CBlue, that's the last thing I wanted to achieve.
So to chase this headache away, here is the Dutch version :

Zeer intaresnest !

Vlgones een oznrdeeok op een Eglnese uvinretsiet mkaat het neit uit in

is dat de eretse en de ltaatse ltteer op de jiutse patals saatn.
De rset van de ltteers mgoen wllikueirg gpletaast wdoren en je knut
vrelvogens gwoeon lzeen wat er saatt.
Dit kmot odmat we neit ekle ltteer op zcih lzeen maar het wrood als gheeel.

Giedlewg he!



And big Aloha to you

Until the post drops off the recent list I'm going to yawn everytime I see the title. I try to avoid it but there it is.

This is the last post on this thread! Any more and it stays near the top and I won't stop yawning. I won't get any work done and I'll have to cancel my subscription!

It is a DoS attack I tell ya!


good night,
yawn.

Oh yeah, "I saw your eyes last"

Just found out that it is not always a case of neuro linguistic programming that makes us yawn. It could also be just plain starving hunger.
Now, where I live (In the lighter southern part of Holland) we eat Nonnevotte around new years day. (Translation of Nonnevotte into English is a little difficult, it's something like : Nun's bottoms.
Ok here is the Module Nonnevotte (my first and maybe my last)

1 kg flower
1 ounce of yeast
1 ounce sugar
1 ounce butter
0.5 l milk

Mix it all, let it rise for 20' make knots of the dough and bake in hot oil.

Bon appetit and stop y..... NOW
