HPR1513: Stir-Fried Stochasticity: Bio-Boogers

This is a show concept I came up with half a decade ago, as the show itself explains. The journal article may be found as PubMed ID#19323757 ( https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19323757 ) if you want to follow along.

Hopefully the updated time references below for the show-note comments are now correct for this version of it. They should be close, anyway.

Also, I'm oddly pleased at how inferior the "old" part of today's episode sounds: it means I've actually gotten a lot better at recording and editing. (It's quite listenable still, I think, it just doesn't sound as good as the newer stuff.)
