Shinn does not yet have the answer, but he is running elaborate tests to find out. It may be that the cautious pipe-organ wasps are repelled by the faint odor of ozone and other gases that rise from radioactive mud. More fascinating is the possibility that among the wasps of Oak Ridge, which have been exposed to radioactive wastes for a longer period than any others, the pipe-organ daub ers may have evolved a special sense that detects radioactivity and enables them to build nests that will not be lethal to their sensitive young...

Here, James Earl Jones is better than fine; he is nothing short of magnificent as he moves, drawing on his majestic pipe-organ of a voice and his resonant belly-laugh, from bluster and swagger through anxiety and fright to exhaustion and eclipse.
