[Lowfer] Great idea for experimenting...

Wed, 17 Apr 2002 08:19:43 -0400

That's a pretty good idea for pushing experimentation a little further.
Just imagine someone hearing a signal 500 or 1000 miles away and being able
to say that it came from a vegetable, fruit or whatever.  I wonder if lemons
would work better??
