how to simulate applause
on: November 10, 2005, 02:34:58 PM
pull a 50 cm length of embroidery thread oven an unlit candle to coat it with wax.  push the end of the thread through the side of a matchbox with a needle.  hold the matchbox to your ear and slowly pull the thread through the hole.  the noise you will hear is similar to an audience clapping.
