Photosynthesis Lab Hypothesis
HYPOTHESIS
Using train conductors as representatives for all of human kind we can postulate with some accuracy the percent of the population of Earth that are complete and total assholes.
If you have ever lived in a small town with train tracks running through it you will know that the conductor of the train is required to sound the whistle at every crossing. This is a 4-part whistle; 2 long, 1 short, 1 long.
My hypothesis is that we can calculate what percentage of the population of planet Earth are probably good folks, are not bad but not really good either, and are total dickheads based on how 10 conductors sound the whistle between the hours of 10pm and 7am in the town of Cascade Locks.
Cascade Locks is a small town, about 2 miles long. It has 1 crossing and it is located at the eastern end of town. On a typical night we have approximately 20 trains go through. For the purpose of this paper, trains heading east will not be included as they sound their whistle on the way out of town therefore causing less disruption. That leaves us with approximately 10 west - bound trains per night. …show more content…
This is often done at standard loudness (which isn't as loud as possible, just as loud as is necessary).
2 out of 10 conductors sound the whistle in 2 long blasts of 1-2 seconds, 1 short blast of 0.5 seconds, and 1 long blast of 1-2 seconds. This is commonly done at what seems to be half of full possible loudness or
