You might be asking yourself,
TwoBuckHowie
how come you don't answer those hard hitting questions anymore?
The ones we didn't know we wanted to ask.
I'll tell you why,
because some people have jobs!
Sorry,
I like saying that.
I didn't mean anything by it.
If you are a computer geek,
or just your average coach potato computer geek like I was for the past nine years,
getting a job
and meeting new people is a lot of fun.
And you know me,
I love to talk,
and meeting more people every day gives me ample opportunities to babble.
But,
I did come across something interesting today you might like to read about.
A
Villain
of giant proportions!
By Matt Novak for Gizmodo.com
“Why do I feel so much like Sigourney Weaver,”
Bezos quipped, referring to the Alien movie franchise.
Any questions out there?
TwoBuck,
do deer whistles really work?
I do not know?
After running into a deer myself last year,
and knowing that most of my family have gone through it themselves,
in the great
it's worth a try.
Or is it?
By
"Invented in Austria in 1979, deer whistles are still distributed by many
companies in Europe and the United States. Simple air-activated
whistles are relatively inexpensive ($5 to $10 apiece online), but
electronic systems may cost several hundred dollars. The devices are
generally attached to the front of the vehicle, and manufacturers claim
they produce ultrasonic frequencies and warn animals of approaching
vehicles, thereby reducing deer-vehicle collisions."
"In Utah, researchers Laura Romin and Larry Dalton detected no
differences in responses from 150 groups of free-ranging mule deer to
vehicles equipped with and without deer whistles. Although some deer ran
away from the test vehicle, they did so regardless of the presence or
absence of whistles. Considering the challenges of producing sound at appropriate
intensities and distances from a moving vehicle, deer hearing
capabilities, human safety concerns, and our observed lack of behavioral
responses of deer to sound treatments, auditory deterrents do not
appear to be appropriate for prevention of deer-vehicle collisions.”
Well,
people who I have talked to say they work.
So who are you going to believe?
People who have gotten
Grants
to do the research,
or your average
Beer Drinking Joe
who goes
Hunting
once a year?
Your right,
I am buying one tomorrow!
This is,
Whistling While I Work

And,
