Popis:	In recent work, Milian-Sanchez et al. observed fluctuations in radioactive decay rate measurement series, and after excluding environmental influences (measured indoors) as root causes, they looked for possible correlations with astrophysical variables. In spite of the authors efforts to investigate possible influences of environmental parameters (such as ambient temperature, pressure and humidity) on the detectors stability, it turns out that the influence of ambient humidity on the instrumentation has been underestimated.
