Hi Bob,
There is the 'old' Western Electric study—I do not know whether it ever was 
published externally [Lee do you know?], where 4 inspectors [some actually 
inspector trainers] were given 4 assemblies [actually only 2 but each inspected 
twice without them knowing it] to inspect as to whatever criteria were deemed 
important at that time [ca. 1970's]. The agreement for all these inspections 
amounted to a whopping 4%.
