And thank you, Rich. To record corn, you need a hot, dry August night
somewhere in the middle of Iowa - late growing season. Make sure
there are plenty of mosquitoes around to make life interesting.
Probably best to use small lavs and clip them to the stalks although
probably any sensitive system will do. You should get the friction
squeaks as the stalks telescope and grow. Speaking of boring...
