NY Times piece on work:
I happened on one of those online lists showing which wire-service articles have been e-mailed most frequently. The leader of the pack, by a great margin, was a Reuters article headlined ''Boring, Passive Work May Hasten Death: Study.'' In the prior six hours, it had been e-mailed 870 times....Apparently a nation of people sitting at their desks and avoiding whatever simple operations they are supposed to be performing found a certain resonance in the idea that, as the study put it, ''the meaningfulness of work may be an important contributor to the mortality experience.'
