Audio Illusions

[komatos]

Neat find.  Not surprisingly, I can still hear the 18 KHz signal in  
#10 quite clearly, even though I'm going on 38 years old in July.  A  
little piercing and annoying, yet still clear.  Every time I go  
through the security gates at work I can hear a quiet high-pitched  
humming of the electromagnetic sensors at work (14 Khz in the case of  
the security gates).  Gets annoying really fast if I stand in the  
middle of them. :D
