the following appeared in a clothing industry trade journal in the country of sartoria.

a recently completed study shows that people dwelling in stairs-only apartment buildings live an average of three years longer than do people who live in buildings with both elevators and stairs. a second study shows that elderly residents of buildings with elevators make, on average, twice as many visits to doctors each year as do elderly residents of buildings without elevators. these findings suggest that even a very moderate amount of daily exercise, such as that required to use the stairs leading to and from ones apartment, can increase peoples health and longevity. the findings also suggest that new apartment buildings should be constructed with as few elevators as possible.
the following was published by a consumer protection agency.
three years ago, so-low launched a nationwide ad campaign, focusing heavily on sunny regions and distributing free sunglasses there. but although so-low sunglasses cost less than higher-priced brands, they block a smaller proportion of the suns rays, including the type of rays known to damage the eyes even when the person wearing the sunglasses feels no discomfort. a recent study suggests that so-low sunglasses can actually increase the risk of damage to peoples eyes by creating a false sense of security. the study shows a sharp increase in the incidence of vision problems in the sunny regions over the past three years. these findings suggest that anyone concerned about eye damage from the sun should avoid so-low brand and instead either pay for higher-priced brands or wear no sunglasses at all.
