Check out my next wine class at NYU starting Feb 1.

But also check out this NYT story from a couple of weeks ago. It turns out researchers think education–yes, education!–is phenomenally important in having a long life. Roll the tape:

The one social factor that researchers agree is consistently linked to longer lives in every country where it has been studied is education. It is more important than race; it obliterates any effects of income.

Year after year, in study after study, says Richard Hodes, director of the National Institute on Aging, education “keeps coming up.”

And, health economists say, those factors that are popularly believed to be crucial — money and health insurance, for example, pale in comparison.

Now couple that with the recent studies on resveratrol and the class may just be the fountain of youth! Ponce de Leon, come hither and enroll!

We will be talking about and tasting cool things like what the heck is going on in these posts.
