False advertising
The Guardian should be a little more humane when they write their leads. "Blaming a computer software error, the US government has admitted overstating the nation's weight problem." I am thrilled; does this mean I'm not as fat as the government thought I was? Alas, no. It just means that my fat is not as likely to kill me as my smoking. But wait a minute—I don't smoke. Hmm. . . . .
