From the paper:
"""
When they meet the seller, the
seller greets them in one of the following three ways: ‘‘Hi there.
Oh, I’m so sorry it’s raining.’’ (superfluous apology), ‘‘Hi there.
Oh, it’s raining.’’ (acknowledgment), or ‘‘Hi there.’’ (neutral)

They should have tried "I apologize for the rain" and counted how many times the answer would be "Oh, so you are God Almighty? Nice to finally meet you in person".
