I am *eating a pizza* while sitting at my PC listening to an engineer
lecture me about the resonant modes of an exhaust pipe.
I feel I have reached a new level of geekhood... :-.

I can't help but wonder.... is the lecture about building pipe organs
(or similar instruments) or about building vehicle exhaust pipes in such
a way that they don't vibrate their way off the chassis....

Heck, wouldn't it be fun to hook up a series of car engines to a
computer, and rev each one at different speeds as a sort of mechanical
MIDI device? :)

I had a thougth at a similar project : radio command from a computer all the
ships horns in a harbour to make their new year 'concerto' even more

Obviously one could play only slow tunes because the distance between boats.

Of course that could be compensated for a fixed direction such as quays and

Reminds me of some C64 Programm that shifted the head of the floppy

Very funny when it is not your computer ...
