The nucleolus was identified early on as a site that made a lot of RNA (Caspersson and Schultz, 1940); later that RNA was shown to have metabolic dynamics distinct from those of chromosomally-derived RNA (McMaster-Kaye and Taylor, 1958). But the function of RNA made in the nucleolus was obscure. Two
