Its supposed to be one of the few audio illusions. When played it sounds like a continually increasing frequency, but just goes on more or less forever. I think the guy who first wrote about it is named sheppard, but I'm not sure. Please help, either post or send response to gtarr@blackbird.afit.af.mil. Thanks.
