[78-L] Average age

[Kristjan Saag]

Which reminds me of a scientific report I once read, about the nature of 
sound that the foetus hears. It definitely registers music, but being 
surrounded by water and blood vessels and other noise the 
signal-to-noise ratio is pretty low. Which probably explains the comfort 
and hominess many people report when listening to old gramophone records...
