Mike,
We tried using cans instead of cups for
transdimensional durability, but found that the solder
connections sometimes developed whiskers. These
'sub-strings' caused a lot of near-field instability:
information coming in one ear would leave the other
before it could be processed, or we found ourselves
speaking different things from opposites of our mouths
- very uncomfortable. However, one mode temporarily
produced 'eyes in the back of the head' awareness in
one of the staff which was useful but we have not been
able to duplicate that configuration.
