I'm still a little fuzzy on the claims made about this device. Sound is mostly omnidirectional, pressure waves in the air. To have a pressure wave that can be heard by one individual and not another next to him requires the wave be very narrow. That's not possible with sound in the 20hz-20Khz range, the normal range of human hearing. It's possible with waves in the megahertz range, but then we can't hear it. Something doesn't add up. Either the claims are a bit more than reality, or somehow they're using frequencies that resonate with the skull or fillings or something and that's producing the sound the recipient hears. - Max Babs, thank you and the very best to you and yours from our newly-enhanced family.

Except for that stupid line about the Pope maybe in Rome. Makes me remember that joke about the Pope convening the College of Cardinals. "Brothers," he tells them, "I have good news, and bad news. "The good news is, I just received a phone call from Jesus Christ, Who has returned. "The bad news is, He was calling from Salt Lake City."

Makes me remember that joke about the Pope convening the College of Cardinals. “Brothers,” he tells them, “I have good news, and bad news.

“The good news is, I just received a phone call from Jesus Christ, Who has returned.

“The bad news is, He was calling from Salt Lake City.”

Can mitigate the need for a translator on the bridge 24/7. They work really well and aren't very loud (don't need earplugs) if you're behind them.

Then, of course, there are the howler monkeys in the jungles of Panama. They scared the bejeebus outta my crew and me the first night we were at Howard AFB... them, and the spiders as big as your hand. No wonder the locals drink so much... :) no one calling on his phone
