Sorry class is late, I vowed to sleep in this morning as I am fighting off a sinus infection. Couldn't believe I was this late.

Obama is such a queer duck, a
Fraud who purports to be pukka
While the right sees the truth
Scores of brain-addled youth
Fall for the lying; Hey sucka!

The data comes from Spreadsheets, a sex activity app that promises to “track your performance between the sheets.”

The app monitors the users’ movement and audio levels, using the phone’s accelerometer and microphone.

I have to wonder at the sample. Who loads an app on their phone knowing that it is going to use the microphone to listen to them?

Do you doubt this company has a disk full of sex moises somewhere?

And where does one wear the phone so that its internal accelerometers can be used?

The mind boggles.
