He's also "well known".

His point is that you _can_ get a good data transfer rate, even though the
signal-noise ratio is bad.  But it requires extra work.  Certainly the S/N ratio
here is near zero (signal divided by noise where noise is very large).

But it isn't _exactly_ zero.  If you search for the "nuggets" you can find them,
if you aren't careful, you will miss them.
