I'm sorry if I state the obvious, but you do realise that the paper is about the fact that this result does not hold, and is a result of the misuse of statistics?
I think the poster you replied to meant "awesome" in the sense of "hilarious".
<sarcasm>No, I thought listening to songs could actually change your chronological age.</sarcasm> (Or is that comment supposed to be some kind of joke, but is too subtle for me to get it?)
Actually, I didn't get your 'awesome'. Internet-irony etc. In outside-LW world, I bet there would be plenty of people who'd actually believe the claim, so I thought some of that may have gone into this. Should have checked your other posts.
