Speaking of Peeps, there's the infamous Peeps Library Useage Study conducted by one of our neighboring colleges:

One of the chief findings of this study: Peeps cannot be trusted with self-service photocopying.

Subject: Wind Tunnels and Peeps

Bonjour,
 
Sounds like the list serve could use a Peeps break.  In my quest to keep current on the latest wind tunnel developments,
I learn these little favorites, once deposited onto conveyer belt,  move through a wind tunnel where colored sugar is applied.  Then their eyes are sprayed on. 
 
Learn also why cousinly circus peanuts break, and don't stretch. We can thank the French for early marshmallow development.

Avoir!
