>> As for "noise", one need no further than the Holmdel, NJ Works and the
Bell Labs researchers Arno Penzias and Bob Wilson
> This pertains to beekeeping -- how?
a) Someone brought up the "signal vs noise" as applied to studies and
papers rather than VHF reception.
b) Arno ran 70 or so colonies down in Highland Park, NJ for a while after he
retired. He's in his late 80s now, I think he sold the last of his hives at
85. I would have figured that this was well-known, as how many other Nobel
laureates kept bees? But he's always been a quiet unassuming type, so other
beekeepers may have only known him as "Arnie", and not realized who he was.
c) Arno is the best example of a man who stubbornly kept poking at "noise",
and it earned him a Bell Labs Fellowship, a Nobel, and a shelf full of other
awards.
> This kind of condescension...
Condensation is a much tougher issue - everyone seems to have their own
favorite sure-fire cure for it.
