Thanks!
*Yes, I know, correlation, even extremely strong correlation, does not necessarily indicate causality, but this ain't stats, it's sports and superstitions (aka "head games").
"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime." - Mark Twain "Innocents Abroad"
