It never fails that 9 months after a blizzard around here the news people always have a special report about the "baby boom" taking place at local hospitals. They invariably interview some low level staffer who anecdotally notes that they seem to be delivering more babies lately. Then they interview some of the couples having the babies who sheepishly grin and admit that they were getting busy during the days around the blizzard. Yet when they show the raw numbers it is only maybe one birth a day more than normal, hardly enough to be a trend attributable simply to blizzard sex.
