When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Neuss building biology

Neuss is indeed a place, and building biology is intensively developed there.

Neuss is the home of the International Institute of Biophysics, which has made major contributions to Baubiologie.

This relates again to the issue of "electrosmog", and the dangers from electrical emissions, often in connection with telephones (mobile, and domestic cordless).

Of course Martina is right, it is \"biologist\" - I was seeing Biologie instead of Biologe.

I looked a bit further, because this interested me, and I found that building biology is so much a German-influenced discipline that it is sometimes not translated. See http://www.bau-biologieusa.com/
