Wish: Echo chamber - 20/03/2002 13:27
I'd like to see the microphone plugged in and software to do an echo chamber effect, with music off. Then I can drive along, and hit potholes and hear an surrealistic echo.

Or hook up a microphone and cruise down the street with your stereo turned up, and say to the chicks: "Hey, baby, I'll be back to pick you up later!"

Yep, with an echo chamber mode enabled, you can finally play Zork.

> What is a grue?
The Grue is a sinister, lurking presence in the dark places of the earth. Its favorite diet is either adventurers or enchanters, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its horrible fear of light. No grues have ever been seen by the light of day, and only a few have been observed in their underground lairs. Of those who have seen grues, few ever survived their fearsome jaws to tell the tale. Grues have sharp claws and fangs, and an uncontrollable tendency to slaver and gurgle. They are certainly the most evil-tempered of all creatures; to say they are touchy is a dangerous understatement. "Sour as a grue" is a common expression, even among themselves.
Your lamp flickers.
