A group of neuroscientists have tapped into the brains of Kiwis to find out how they respond to reading a newspaper.


A Newspaper

The BFD conducted its own highly scientific study to find out how our readers respond to reading the BFD by getting a volunteer to wear one of our BFD thinking caps. Unlike the MSM caps, our caps don’t have blinkers and as you can tell from our volunteer’s expression he had much more fun tha the volunteers for a Newspaper did above.

I think we even managed to stimulate some hair follicles while we were at it.

**Not an actual BFD volunteer just a pic we found on the internet thingy.
