	I seem to recall reading or hearing about a beast called a "plasma
speaker" - which used some form of a gas plasma (I think argon) to produce
high-quality sound.  I guess it even went to market, but was too high
priced and too bulky (you had to have a tank of argon to make it work)
for most people.  Is this just another urban myth?
