Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

That's a link to a file with a sweeping (descending) tone ranging from 22kHz to 12kHz. I can start to hear it at 17.

Huh. I hear it right away at 22.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That one I heard at 16.

Okay, do I have mutant hearing?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I can hear the teenager sound. To me, it sounded nothing remotely like water running in a toilet tank; it was so unpleasant I had to shut it off after the first couple of seconds. Ugh. If malls are really-truly using that to ward off loitering teens, I am gladder than ever that I generally avoid the damn places.

Ugh. It's giving me the shudders just remembering the sound.

And I could hear the teenager one! Once I adjusted the volume on my computer...

Okay, do I have mutant hearing?

Apparently.

Dana is either a teenager, or possibly a dog (because on the internet, nobody knows you're a dog.)

(Until you admit to hearing 22kHz sounds.)

Huh, interesting Liese--I didn't hear it until 15!! (But I also couldn't hear the teenager one. And I"m pretty sure I've got hearing damage--I HATE talking on the phone because I have to keep saying "what? what?"--that's why I prefer b.org and LJ and IM and such for keeping up with people!)

I heard it at 19 and almost jumped out of my skin. I don't think I can click on any more of these links.

Maybe I'm doing the test wrong.

If not, I await my acceptance letter to Xavier's school.

I started hearing it at 16. Not a fun sound.
