They do have a good nose for a story, these journalists.The theory that our sense of smell has its basis in quantum physics events is gaining traction, say researchers.

It's an MP3 file, i.e. just sound. Someone hitting the snare drum, then a cymbal.
Best wishes,

Dave, AFAIK, "rimshot" is a term used to describe the drumroll that precedes or follows a bad joke. It is also a basketball shot that falls short and goes off the front or back of the rim or goes around the rim of the basket one or more times and comes out.DaveA wrote:Is this MP3 file just noise or is there a vid with it?Leif wrote:Try this
