Why Santa Claus is correlated with Aids?

Probably this in one of the most sirius post in this blog!

Ok, so, what "science" is all aboute? Well, partly about finding correlations. The other part is to discover if that correlation is real. For example people that are talking about "global warming" mostly forget about second part.

How dose it work? How can We find correlation betwean Santa Claus and Aids?
It's easy, You have to compare two curves. You can use google trends - it shows how often topics have been searched on Google over time.

ok, just try SANTA (claus) and AIDS



santa is blue, aids - red.
correlation - obvious!!!!!!

Why? Does that mean that people think of Santa Claus as filthy, immoral, obscene old man with aids?
No, so why there is correlation.

Let's start with comparing google trends curves for CHRISTMAS and SANTA:



natural,
next step is CHRISTMAS and SEX



christmas is red, sex blue. Correlation isn't so perfect, but We belive it exist.
Last step is:

SEX vs. AIDS



and that is why we have correlation SANTA (claus) - AIDS




so, do You belive and undarstand now?
YOU SHOULDN'T!!!! It's an illusion. There IS NO real correlation between SEX and AIDS.
The trick is, that 1 December is World AIDS Day.

Show some compassion to astronomers, almost all their work is finding correlations!

Ps.
Find out why there is anticorrelation with VODKA - POLAND !!!!!!!! XD

Comsic Latte Observatories All Over the World?

Did you see 1st November (2009) Astronomy Picture of a Day? link
This is it:

They say it's an average color of The Universe (named "cosmic latte"), but only this?
Some unanswered questions:
  • Is this color also an average color of all observatories?
  • Sholud we rename our project to "Comsic Latte Observatories All Over the World"?
  • How long astronomers know this color?
  • Is it some kind of conspiracy?
  • Previous question can be reduced to: what is the very first astronomical observatory painted in that color?
