What would the world sound like if we could climb inside the head of another animal?  I went to the Olympic National Park recently with my wife and got some great recordings of humming bird vocalizations.  We stayed at a B&#38;B which had humming bird feeders and more humming birds then I&#8217;ve ever seen before [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ Why has the piano become one of the most universal and widely used instruments?  It&#8217;s heavy, hard to move, and difficult to tune.  It&#8217;s impossible bend or slide between notes and it can&#8217;t play notes outside of a fixed tuning.  Yet, the piano can be found incorporated into musical traditions all over the world.
