Notes on the Empty Mist

a four-cell occupancy matrix for supermarket produce misting

A research poster from the School of Emergent Priorities classifies supermarket produce-misting scans into four named cells and finds Empty Mist, the jets running with no one lingering, in 41 percent of 2,184 intervals across twelve wet racks. Campus-retail wet-rack hours may now be varied only from a documented Cooled Linger-majority week, with an Empty Mist-majority week suspending the jets for the remainder of the trading week.
