Sheep like happy, smiley people: official

OK, where do I put this shepherd's tale? In my 'Agriculture' category, because it's about sheep? Or in 'Humor', because it's from The Register (usually a technology rag) and it talks about:

Dr Kendrick said: "This does open up the possibility that they have much richer emotional lives than we would give them credit for."

Oh, Hel, 'Ag' it is. But it's still pretty silly

Continuing our occassional series looking at how cutting-edge scientific research is changing our world for the better, we have unearthed the astounding fact that sheep prefer looking at happy people.

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
