sitting here, listeing to the sound of the rain outside during the
current typhoon hitting yokohama, i was struck by the similarity of
the sound of bacon frying.

the interesting thing is that the one relaxes me and puts me in a
state of deep meditation, while the other puts me on edge. (guess which!)

i was wondering if it might not be possible to do an fft analysis of
both sounds and then cross reference those with psychological studies
of the effects of sound on the mental state.
