Re: "The happy-states list, however, doesn't match up with a similar ranking reported last month, which found that the most tolerant and wealthiest states were, on average, the happiest. Oswald says this past is based on raw averages of people's happiness in a state, and so doesn't provide meaningful results."

"That study cannot control for individual characteristics," Oswald told LiveScience. "In other words, all anyone has been able to do is to report the averages state-by-state, and the problem with doing that is you're not comparing apples with apples because the people who live in New York City are nothing like the individuals living in Montana."

Interesting....

So, some States (the environment there, the sunshine, the taxes, the smell of flowers, whatever) MAKE people feel happy....

Why some states score highly on tests for 'happy people' probably because more 'happy type people' MOVED THERE?

(It's all so confusing! <g>)
