poisson d'avril means "April Fools", and I had to Google it to spell it correctly.
And I had to google translate it back!!
I could figure out it was "fish of" something... totally blanked that "avril" is french for April. duh! So I guess in France, they call you a fish if you're a fool.
Hmmmm... does that mean a Poisson distribution tells you where to expect to find fish?
The article was a hoot. There was plenty of April Fool's stuff online yesterday.
