Link: Spoilers don’t actually spoil stories; rather, they seem to enhance their enjoyment.
At least when it comes to books. That according to a recent study from the University of California, San Diego.

About
One of the great joys of listening to NPR is not knowing where the next story will take me. Will it be the Steppes of Mongolia? A prison in Alabama? The inside of the Federal Reserve?
Often embedded within these pieces are facts, figures, and fascinating trivia; but the smooth, dulcet tones of the reporter distract me, allowing the information to slip out the back. I will attempt to collect these morsels of hard data and post them here.
If you hear something, share something. But only the facts; not subjective thoughts, loose approximations, or unprovable claims.
