Notes From Folks are anecdotal accounts by people that have had personal experience with a company, product, or procedure related to the topic that this icon is near. In some cases these folks are professional experts in the field, in others they are just plain folks that have a lot of experience in a given topic. In many cases, the actual hands-on experience of a talented amateur is worth much more than the writings of a Ph.D. with little or no hands-on experience.
