                     Sonar: Bats vs. Dolphins vs. Humans
 
     I am interested in any comparisons of the sonar capabilities of bats,
dolphins, and humans (human technology, of course!). In particular, I have
heard the claim that bats and/or dolphins have certain sonar capabilities
which we have not as yet been able to duplicate technologically. Is there
any truth to this, or is this just another modern folk myth?
