Don't any of you recollect a special done on the teevee a few years 
ago 
when someone decided that it might be possible to record, and 
possibly 
play back, a groove on a rotating piece of pottery? I think they 
were 
trying to hear the sound of Pompeii being blown up on an existing 
piece 
of crockery. The producers actually attempted the recording & 
playback 
process but, if I remember correctly, it didn't work.
The pot is now stored in Al Capone's vault. They didn't find that, 
either.
