There must be something wrong with me then cause I am not good at figuring out where sounds are coming from, especially in the woods where I have been living.
How long have you lived in the Netherlands? ________________________________ From: turquoiseb <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, December 22, 2012 1:06 PM Subject: [FairfieldLife] Auditory Christmas Having just returned from a walk with Paris and Pippin, I can report that Leiden, Netherlands still announces its fervor for the Christmas season using church bells. Because one of my moonlighting gigs involves ghostwriting articles for audiologists who hope to make money by pretending that they actually write the articles on their websites (*most* of the the articles written by "doctors" on the Internet don't really have anything to do with the actual writing of them), I can report that reality just *isn't* the way you perceive it to be. :-) One of the things I learned in my ghostwriting activities for these sleazeball audiologists is that the human ear is remarkably *directional*, meaning that it can accurately interpret the approximate physical source of a sound, just by hearing it. Tonight, as I was walking my dogs, I located no fewer than five different sources of church bells, calling the few "faithful" who heard them to prayer, in my neighborhood. On the walk, I passed three of them. No one was responding to the "call." You can parse that information however you choose to. I'm just presenting the facts. You can spin them any way you want to. :-)
