First It Was Beer

Now it's milk. I swear, I'm in need of an intervention or something. No matter what the subject, pretty much everything makes me think of Methos. You think I'm kidding? I'm reading this article: Study Detects Recent Instance of Human Evolution (which is quite fascinating BTW, and I would recommend reading it if you're into that sort of thing) and I get to this bit:

...Such a mutation is known to have arisen among an early cattle-raising people, the Funnel Beaker culture, which flourished some 5,000 to 6,000 years ago in north-central Europe. People with a persistently active lactase gene have no problem digesting milk and are said to be lactose tolerant.

So what was the first thing that I thought of? Yeah.

Like I said, I need an intervention, since I'm obviously disturbed and in need of serious help.
