gethyllis cold tolerance (Rick Buell)

If you agitate a mixture of different sized particles of the same density,
the larger ones will rise to the top. In the case of a can of mixed nuts,
that would be the brazil nuts. So it's not actually a conspiracy to place
the high value nuts on top with the peanuts hidden below, it is a natural
phenomenon that happens in shipping.
