I saw this on /. and had to bring it right here. This one has Dimension of Spherey all over it.

Apparently, Oklahoma is taking people at their word that sounds can cause altered states of conciousness.

And, like an angry mother bear defending her cub against a giant tub of threatening jello, or a government attempting to spread FUD to raise taxes and pay for weaponry, awesome hilarity ensues. (Okay, so the jello is unlikely, and the gov't is more scary than cuddly, but uhh...you get the simile.)

Now, I realize that sound does have an effect on our conciousness, but uhhhh...how exactly are we going to treat it like a narcotic? Idiocracy, here we come.*

Chris, you'd betta watch out. You could end up talking to some guys in black suits and sunglasses if you keep playing with frequencies.

If Oklahoma is on board, surely Kansas and Missouri will follow suit, just to keep from looking liberal in the Bible Belt.

Well, you and the Celts, The Native Americans, the Hindus, the Buddhists, the Sikhs, the Australian Aborigines, the tribes of Africa, and Wiccans.

Also suddenly sleepy piano tuners, kids with a delay pedal, John Cage, and Hearts Of Space. Actually, I'm concerned about Hearts Of Space now. HOS could be in for not only distribution of a controlled sound, but also manufacturing with intent to distribute.

BT can probably move to a friendly country and fight extradition.

I like to think it adds a dangerous edge to producing. Imagine getting a warrant for your harddrives and audio equipment and a cease and desist for manipulating Theta waves.

On the other hand, it does smack a bit like heavy metal bands getting hauled into court for the influence of backwards and forwards Satanic messages in their records...just a modern twist.

There is a website called how to get high without drugs that has all kinds of ways that you can get high without chemicals. Most of the methods are things that have been done for thousands of years. Interesting stuff.

Don't tell Oklahoma about that. They'll end up banning breathing.
