Researchers in Virginia have discovered that when rats get behind the wheel of tiny rat cars that it lowers their stress levels...sure,fine, then let's build some tiny rat gridlock situations and see how that works for their stress levels! I'm not sure how they got to the point a making tiny rat cars or the cost for that matter but the bottom line was that when rats have playthings like ladders and toys their mental capacity increases over that of your ordinary run of the mill rat. The good part of this research is they believe it also applies to people with depression and other mental illnesses in that when they are mentally stimulated it improves their mental capacity, to which I would like to say,duh.
