Cola help

Yes it is something of a hidden structure. You need to edit Template:Colas. The braces - { - call a template. So {{colas}} calls the page Template:Colas. There is further explanation at Wikipedia:Template_namespace.--Commander Keane 17:45, 1 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

removal of cola brands

I removed them because we don't have a page about the cola for those brands, and the link went to the generic brand page, that had no cola information. Night Gyr 14:35, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re the HUM

You dont say what type of transmitters, if they are say ELF/ VLF Naval transmitters, then you may be onto something. "group of very large transmission towers" would be consistent with this usage. Quoting from here Listening to Leonids[1] "Here's how it works:

"Radio waves induce currents in electrical conductors. "Strong, low-frequency currents can literally shake ordinary objects," explains Dennis Gallagher, a space physicist at the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center. "When things shake, they launch vibrations into the air, which is what we hear.

Higher-frequency radio waves, like TV transmissions or FM radio broadcasts, oscillate much too fast (hundreds of millions of times per second) to substantially shake conductors. Even if they did, we couldn't hear the resulting MHz-frequency sound waves, which are far above the frequency range of a human ear.

But VLF waves can do the job. Keay discovered that even a pair of glasses could be made to vibrate slightly. Perhaps that explains the experience of Erich in Troy, New York: "When I was out [viewing the Leonids on Nov. 18th]," he reported, "I had my head back on the ground and heard a sizzling sound. My head was close to grass and leaves and I wear wire frame glasses as well. The sound was definitely simultaneous with the observation of a rather large streak."

So there is a POSSIBLE scientific basis. As for recording, a seismograph perhaps?--220.101.28.25 (talk) 23:51, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
