# I'm in Capetown now,
I wish. But really, its ridiculous!! Its ruining the game for so many people, why every game? Why not just SA games? Don't you want to hear the commentary? Also plastic horns made in china (FIFA organised contract) do not constitute culture. If every fan bought a fog horn or a tuba (imagine - more than one note/sound) to English games it would be a joke!!

# Human hearing is non-linear too,
so double the intensity doesn't sound twice as loud. Apparently the decibel scale roughly (probably very roughly) accounts for this.
