This is a place for spontaneous ideas that I or others have, which have a measure of sense and usefulness, but which the poster is unlikely to pursue due to time or inclination. For me, mostly time. If you like the idea, take it and run with it. Please be kind enough to cite the post you used and/or tell me if it provided you with inspiration or proved helpful. Don't worry, I, and anyone who post and idea, won't sue, but we may ask to help. It is how you execute it that counts, not the idea. If the idea already exists, then please tell me so I can use it. Now, go make something useful!

Thinking about my blood type got me wondering whether there is a relationship between your blood type and how willing to give you are. To refresh:
Based on these facts, O’s are able to give to the most people, AB’s the least and A’s and B’s are in between. So the hypothesis is “Do O’s give the most, AB’s the least and A’s and B’s somewhere in between.
One easy way to test this hypotheis, assuming that there is no skew towards finding O’s on the part of the blood banks, is to look at the volume of blood donated every year by blood type.
Other tests could be to select a random group of people, test their blood type and look at how much money they donated as a percentage of their income, or the number of hours they volunteered in a year.
