    The Boltzmann-Langevin equation is used to relate the shot-noise
    power of a mesoscopic conductor to classical transmission
    probabilities at the Fermi level. This semiclassical theory is
    applied to tunneling through n barriers in series. For n -> infinity
    the shot noise approaches one third of the Poisson noise,
    independent of the transparency of the barriers. This confirms that
    the one-third suppression known to occur in diffusive conductors
    does not require phase coherence.
