Since the title on the thread matches the title at the source, are you sure you understand FR posting rules?

It looks like “IFLScience.org” is a blog of some kind. The link looks to have been changed to the actual source, instead of the blog that you reference. Maybe the headline was changed to reflect the actual title in the source article?

Some bloggers here do that - source something, change a word or two, and then link to their blog instead of the source and act like they are doing FR a favor by linking their blog instead of the source. Kind of scummy but they do it.

The title, source, link, author's name and date you used all had to be changed to reflect the original published title, the names of the study's authors, the site of original publication and the date the study was originally published.

Always use the original title, the original source, provide a link which goes to the original site of publication, provide only the name(s) of the published author(s) and the date of original publication.

However, if you prefer, we will be happy to pull this thread. Just hit the abuse button and let us know.

Thanks.
