<br />..Lv';tU <br /> <br />MR. PETERSON: <br />MR. STAPLETON: <br />MR. PETERSON: <br /> <br />inches - if this goes high enough and <br />there is only one square inch left on my <br />left here, that means the odds are only <br />one out of a hundred that this would have <br />occurred by chance; likewise down here. <br />If we end up with 1/100 of the total area <br />under this curve, that means the odds are <br />one out of a hundred that this occurred by <br />chance. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Now, as you pointed out, and correctly <br />so, it's very likely that we are not going <br />to be that far on either end of the distri- <br />bution but some place in between. That's <br />why I certainly don't want to tell you we <br />can come up with eonclusive results in one <br />year's time. The chances are that we will <br />not and that the most definite indications <br />we will have, will probably be on some of <br />these physical effects that we are noting <br />on changes in clou~s and tracks of indivi- <br />dual hail storm paths where we can see what <br />happened before, during and after treatment <br />of the particular cell. I'd certainly be <br />willing to emphasize that point. The chances <br />of coming up with a statement along this <br />line, and let's see if I can phrase one <br />here, unless a one in twenty chance occurred, <br />there has been a 10% decrease in hail and a <br />10% increase in precipitation. The chances <br />are slim of being able to make that with a <br />straight face and to stay honest with myself. <br />You are absolutely right. I won't argue <br />with you at all." <br /> <br />"Mr. Chairman." <br /> <br />"Mr. Peterson." <br /> <br />"I'm somewhat concerned about this body <br />appropriating the money for this purpose. <br />I think we would be criticized severely when <br />we went back to the State Legislature to <br />ask for additional funds for next year. Here <br />comes before us a State University whose <br />body goes before the Legislature for appro- <br />priation of funds to carry out their work <br />and I think that if the State Legislature <br />intended that they should be appropriated <br />additional money, that they would be given <br />that money in their budget. I don't believe <br />the State Legislature takes into considera- <br />tion that this body would be appropriating <br /> <br />I <br />
