gnomes

The <code>gnomes</code> dataset consists of 300 observations of gnomes
that had their housing unit (i.e., their mushroom) insulated against cold and
humidity. The insulation was done by the most skilled insulation animals in
the forest: squirrels (Sciurus vulgaris).They either used the common insulation
technique consisting of leafs of the common beech tree (Fagus sylvatica) or
an experimental form of insulation using leafs of the less common (and thus,
more expensive) sessile oak tree (Quercus petraea). For the year before
insulation and the year after insulation, the gnomes filled out the Gnomes'
Humidity and Thermal Satisfaction scale (Gnomes' HATS),
a well-validated questionnaire that rates mushroom insulation satisfaction
w.r.t. humidity and temperature on a scale of 0 to 50. Differences between
pre and post measurement were calculated on a higher-is-better basis. 
The squirrels were paid in acorns.
