    I always thought (at least this was the rumour) that the University of
    East Anglia (a series of concrete blockhouses, too far from a town not
    worth going to, in an unnervingly rural county) had the highest rate of
    suicide. I dunno though really - it's no more or less prestgious than 80
    percent of the rest.

    As for the +ve feedback thing, does anyone British remember Angie from
    East Enders' suicide (maybe 15 years ago - I never watched it) where
    apparently the attempted suicide rate went up for a while afterwards?
