How a Color Could Make You Faster and a Humidifier Could Make Your House Bigger

That's Absurd Please Elaborate

Trace WOOD really like you to know that Dr Sam Zelinka from the Forest Products Lab is really SWELL, and he is KNOT KIDDING (I’m out of puns). Also, Julian talks about airplanes (again).

QUESTIONS

Julian: "What is the fastest color?" from Rey

Trace: "How much does my house shrink in the winter and expand in the summer?" from Chris
