The author has seen 3D sound used for video games (it's been around for many years); that doesn't mean that they've seen it in the context of car-to-car communication as a means of projecting the spatial environment into the car interior. |

21 Quest, I appreciate that you're trying to help, but you often interpret my rules far more strictly than what I meant when I wrote them. Try to hold your horses, okay? |

i've stripped the whole post down to basics. My original post was too preachy. |

So now its not just phoning will driving, you also have to look into the direction of the person you are adressing? - Anyone else in the car will have to adress higher powers (by angling their head into the direction their deity is located, traditionally, squinting counts as an attempt to contact inner strength) |

you don't have to look at them, but a slight change in the direction of your face might help them hear you...the same way you do might when talking to a passenger in a car the size of a church. |

Apart from my disinclination for long range communication in churches, i imagine i would turn my head fully towards anyone i was adressing (otherwise, how yould the system know whom i meant?). |
|

there is of course the "talking from the corner of your mouth", but this relies almost completely on the receivers ability to filter your voice. |

I drive slowly and with my windows down, playing Steely Dan
or the Sundays, so I'm pretty familiar with that doppler
effect when people pass me, flip me off, and yelled
FuuuuU****K YOOOUUU ASSHOOoooollllle !!! |

I would pay for that same satisfaction on hot days. + |

no no, loon, I said a car the size of a church. |

really, this idea is just simulating what it would be like if everyone was driving completely, noiseless, open-air go carts. |

//How many titles has this idea had ?// |

not enough, apparently... |

No-one understands you whichever way you're facing, [Ian]. |
