OOPs:  Too late Pat,  it's been done already just flip on any pop music 
station on the radio, everybody is doing it these days,  All Bass & Drums, worse 
yet just roll down the window of your car on the way to a gig and the cars along 
side you with teenagers in them will be playing it loud enough to move their 
cars down the street with mere vibrations from the bass lines and 50,000 watts 
of power boosters mounted in the trunk.

They are beating the high price of gasoline and using alternative energy.  :)


Say What?  I can't hear you, there is a Car load of teens going by, now these 
guys do provide some good from their inventions however, if you have been 
stuck in traffic for a long time or been on a long drive to or from a gig, it is 
actually pleasing for one of them to drive up behind you at a red light.  The 
pulsating vibrations from their bass speakers will come up through the 
underside of your car and seat and give you a full butt massage.

This however has been known to cause other orgasmic problems for ladies, 
which can be quite dangerous while driving.  It has also been found that it 
awakens sleeping drivers better than honking the horn.


Cheers,
