Anybody know what this might technically refer to specifically? He took spectral measurements and noticed that the lightbulb tended to shriek when the air conditioner turned on. Maybe an app on a phone, specialized equipment?

Reminds me of the opening to this article by a journalist having a casual chat with this wife (a psychiatrist at a state mental institution) one evening where she stated in passing: Of course he’d been smoking pot his whole life. https:&

In a 2014 study, he found that 58 percent of affluent people are first-generation wealth, not trust-fund babies. I've heard that idea before, that the notion of inherited unearned wealth as explaining the bulk of the wealthy
