Bad timing
By SEWilco, Section Ask SciScoop Posted on Tue Feb 14, 2006 at 01:38:09 AM PST
On Valentine's Day, the sciencebase.com excerpt ended with "55% of women across Europe die of card..." This suggests getting a Valentine's Day card in Europe is not particularly healthy.

Maybe SciScoop could terminate the summary at the end of a word instead of after a certain number of characters? It also occurs to me that sciencebase contributors could also play with their wording to intentionally cause such oddities, although if they do so they could do it on partial or complete words as well. Not that I really anticipate that being a popular activity.
