Re: [ARSCLIST] Tonight's MythBusters - "archaeoacousitcs"
Is MythBusters on Thursday also? In Cal it aired yesterday, on Wednesday.....
I don't want to spoil it for anyone who might be watching the program today or Sunday, but the crack team of busters did not succeed in recording _intelligible_ sound onto clay.

Tonight's MythBusters TV show takes on the concept of "archaeoacousitcs". Can sound be inadvertently recorded on objects such as clay on a pottery wheel? Can such a recording later be reproduced? The episode airs tonight (Thurs) at 9pm EST on the Discovery Channel, and then again on Sunday, 10/15, at 8pm EST.
I talked with them a couple months ago, and pointed them towards Christor Hamp's website:
