	Coming Soon: Removable Top Hoop Houses
		Hoop house trials at the Noble Foundation have shown that only a few crops, namely tomato, cucumber, specialty (colored) pepper and cut flowers, are profitable when grown as a single crop per growing season.
		However, considering the hoop house is generating income only 10 weeks out of 52, it is doubtful hoop house asparagus is a profitable enterprise.
		For example, in southern Oklahoma a movable hoop house can be used to force a crop of strawberries into production during March and then moved to an adjacent location in April to protect a planting of cucumber or squash.

	Introduction to Hooping: Hooping.org Magazine
		The band has been known to toss hoops into the audience during shows since the mid-'90s, and FOCs ("Friends of Cheese") were key seeds of the American hooping community.
		Hooping is way more fun than the hula hooping you remember as a child, because the bigger and heavier the hoop, the slower it rotates around your body.
		When you're using a customized hoop that's four feet in diameter, the rotation is slow enough that even clumsy amateurs can keep the hoop going — and it's not too hard to get into doing tricks.

	Algebraic Hoop
		With those two results, one can prove that by natural induction that every finite hoop is isomorhpic to C3^N. If this is true, then the number N could be called the dimension of the hoop.
		We can also give a formula for the number of C3 sub-hoops in a hoop: the number of C3 sub-hoops is (3^n(3^n-1))/6, where n is the dimension of the hoop*.
		I haven't looked at any of the other hoops, and a cursory glance suggests it would be difficult to determine which groups give hoops, but I don't have the time to think about it in any detail at the moment.
