 SA> Can't check, but here's another example from Turbo C/C++ V.3 for DOS.
 SA> Online help - under section: sound()
 SA>      True story: 7 Hz is the resonant
 SA>      frequency of a chicken's skull cavity.
 SA>      This was determined empirically in
 SA>      Australia, where a new factory
 SA>      generating 7-Hz tones was located too
 SA>      close to a chicken ranch: When the
 SA>      factory started up, all the chickens
 SA>      died.
