"Located on the grassy knoll in front of the library, the Wolf Ears have been a source of acoustic fun for years. With the Wolf Ears you can have a conversation with a friend that is sitting 40 feet away. Sit in one of them and have your friend sit in the other one and a whisper will be all you need to hear each other. No secrets, though, someone standing in between them might hear it too!"

Whispering galleries is by-product of Gothic Architecture. Arches & vaults used to create such structures & carrying of whispers was a by-product. In India, great dome of "Gol Gumbaj" at Bijapur has 36 whispering galleries. Fun!!
