Yeah, but where's the audio link. ;P Chris Meech We're more like a hobbiest in a Home Depot drooling at all the shiny power tools, rather than a craftsman that makes the chair to an exacting level of comfort by measuring the customer's butt. Marc Clifton VB is like a toolbox, in the hands of a craftsman, you can end up with some amazing stuff, but without the skills to use it right you end up with Homer Simpson's attempt at building a barbeque or his attempt at a Spice rack.

friggin'! consider that in some parts of germany concerts may not exceed 110 decibels (some germans can get really stupid; many would call the freaking cops to go interrupt concerts)! or like a friend of mine: in controversy to another law that states that cars may not exceed 96 decibels including the exhaust, his reaches 126 without one. those 126 were quite enough for me. Я люблю русский язикь!

Privet Phil! This is completely off topic, but I just wanted to say that it is nice to see someone who likes Russian language. :-) Всего доброго. P.S. Perhaps you should consider changing "язикь" in your signature to "язык". :-) ------------------------------ http://www.kostya.com/ [^]

So, a jet is twice as loud as her then. :) -- Gott weiß ich will kein Engel sein.

Nah. The dB scale is logarithmic, so a jet is ten times louder.

Yes, you are right. I just calculated it to be ~3.0103 dB per double intensity. I wonder where I got the double per 10 dB from. :~ Do you know of any other physical phenomenon that behaves in that way? :rolleyes: -- Gott weiß ich will kein Engel sein.

I keep promising myself that one day I will buy me a French language manual and will try to refresh my memory. Not that I have any use for French, but I feel bad that I don't remember any of it. Well, I have another reason - I always wanted to read Alexander Dumas books in the language they were written. :) ------------------------------ http://www.kostya.com/ [^]
