Intravel

Intravel: noun. An interval within an interval. For example, recording the volume of a scream at 1 minute intervals within 10 minute intervals. Intravels are used by scientists especially when measuring complex variables, such as human emotions, bad news and the amount of plastic cups in a plastic cup dispenser. It is thought that Newton was particularly opposed to intravels, as he saw them as unscientific and far too confusing to be worth the hassle.
