That reminds me of an incident in my office years ago. I was located next
to a fancy retirement center. I subscribed to a tape of the month club.
Usually they sent motivational tapes, but one month I got a set of
relaxation tapes. I decided to slip one into the office music system. It
was a trip down a mountain stream that ended in a waterfall. A couple of
elderly women came in as the waterfall started. They thought an airplane
was about to crash into the building and got all excited. I flipped the
tape over and it happened to be evening in the forest with wolves. Both
women were afraid to leave, sure that they would be eaten alive by a pack of
wild dogs. I was unable to convince them that they were listening to a
tape. They left reluctantly and cautiously made their way back to the home!
