How do I know? Because research tells me so as well as the NY Times. See: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/12/22/nyregion/22nyc.html The NY Times article summarizes a research study by Oswald and Wu that appears in the journal Science. Not mentioned in the Times article is that the data was collected around 2002 if memory serves. Which kind of explains why Louisiana is ranked #1 in happiness. What was it that Milton said about ruling in hell versus serving in heaven?
