> hopefully RG Richmond”s article will put this thread to rest

Unlikely that a 1927 article that ends with a question will do so!

This "thread" has been going on since wooden hives were invented.
There will likely never be a definitive yes/no answer, especially if we are
stuck only with evaluating anecdotes and arguments that "make sense."
In order to make informed management decisions, we need to better
understand how environmental variables and hive design affect moisture
accumulation.

What I'm looking for is hard evidence (data) from field trials or lab
experiments (some have findings of great interest, which I will share once
I've completed my own), as well
as fluid dynamic calculations by engineers.  Only when we can put them all
together in a way that they generally agree will we be truly informed.
