Hm, did you read: It was an Australian study....
So, maybe on the Southern Hemisphere, the "Silver Curse" is reversed into something good??
Maybe it is influenced by the Coriolis force? ...
At least bath-tub-drain vortecies spinn the opposite direction down-under...

Australia no.....Auckland, New Zealand yes!

Interesting study. The biggest shock to me was 3000 people die daily accross the globe from car accidents!
