It had not been my intent to record through the plastic bag, the bag was
simply a case of wanting to protect some expensive microphones as I did not=

moist. I was just finishing work on a troublesome recorder and had plugged=

right place at the right time with the recorder running when suddenly,
there they were, so I let the recorder run and I sat back and listened
until they were finished. There was no design to its happening as it did..=
