Can you Hear This Sound?
Platypus Matt, Kairos, June 13, 2006.


The teen-age ringtone phenomenon has captured the interest of readers (and unsolicited advertisers). Still, it's pretty funny. If you want to hear (or not hear, as the case may me) the ringtone, here's the MP3. And don't ask me where to get it as a ringtone, I have no idea. Oh, and do I hear it, you ask? Nope. Nothing.

Re: Can you Hear This Sound?

At first I thought this might be a case of "the emperor's new tones" but when I cranked the volume way up I did start to get that nasty sensation that tends to precede a hard drive crash. Since it's the same sound used to repel teenage loiterers from hi-tone stores, I suspect that in a class full of people with the necessarily sensitive hearing the owner of the ringing phone will be disciplined by his or her peers without any need for this over-aged instructor to get involved.
