There was laughter and applause. Actually, that exchange did not truly reflect the feelings of the occasion, for when called upon to ask the evening's final question, Walter H.

The echoes that they send back are predominantly high-pitched, and a listener quickly learns to judge target size by the tone of the echo. Once he knows the size of an object, he can tell its distance by the loudness of the echo. Judging a target's material is a more subtle job, but in general, such hard materials as metal...
