Never had a reason to blog untill now...
Yesterday I heard/felt the coolest thing ever! Ok so as you all may or may not know, I'm stationed in South Korea. Well I had a conference to attend at another instalation, a 3 hour bus ride away. Now rumble strips are a normal thing in the united states. Everyone hates them. They are loud, rough, and annoying. Well Yesterday we happend to go across a set that played the national anthom of South Korea. Yeah thats right. MUSICAL RUMBLE STRIPS. They were soft and light, and so long as you stayed at a consistant speed, each strip was a different "note" damn cool. I reccomend you all come over to see/hear/feel it for yourself!

Doc_MWikkid! Though I will admit that the obnoxiousness of the Wake-up strips on the QEW may have saved my life once, hehe.

Arsenault185Well I don't have a video for you, but that one pales compared to this one. The one in the video is only about 4 notes, and doesn't even sound all that great. This one actually had many different notes, and sounded like it was supposed to. Uber cool
ravenI will put that on my list of things to do when I go visit my brother in the summer (he's teaching English in Seoul)... I am also saving my videosift T-shirt for when we visit the DMZ!
Arsenault185Oh man, what a great city that is. And the DMZ. well i was just there. Infact I'll show you some pictures In my next blog.
