    Barry White's voice is so deep that the resonance must serve as a no-touch vibrator for women.

  4. I've seen sharks react to music by limejuice · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I do production work for bands (lights and sound) and recently did a private party for half.com at the New Jersey State Aquarium in Camden and the sound system that was used that night consisted of 4 18" subwoofers. The stage was directly across the dance floor from one of the large windows looking into the main ocean tank, which holds various sharks and other fish that are native to the North Atlantic. After the band began playing, I looked at the tank and noticed that some of the fish were getting more frisky instead of simply moping around the tank like they normally do. I didn't notice any intercourse, but I wasn't really looking for it.
