I CREATED this wacky but scientific dairy article. Please help in publishing it. If sorcery is used in cows, what will happen, it must be studied. Cheers.--Florentino Floro (talk) 11:52, 28 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Misleading... edit

It doesn't seem that the study claims to have established the naming of a cow as a *cause* of higher milk production, but simply a *correlation* between more milk and names. see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Correlation_does_not_imply_causation

Although this may raise some very interesting questions about links between animal health and psychological states, it frankly doesn't seem very scientific.
