My NYC neighborhood <br />has about the same number of people. Yours has like 2 people per acre mine over 60 per acre.<br /><br />It’s hilarious viewing Northampton in Google Maps, there’s no one walking around on! Typical American suburb. Even the travel guide shows few people walking around. There must be some creative people around though, the Wikipedia entry makes the hamlet sound like a paradise.<br /><br />Anyway YouTube has a 50 video World Championship of Whistling series.

But lately I mostly use an App.<br /><br />Acme makes all sorts of whistles including dog whistles:<br />https://www.acmewhistles.co.uk/<br /><br />Fox40 makes great, powerful whistles: Safety, Hiking and Sports.<br />https://www.fox40world.com/<br />(My keychain whistle is a Fox40 Safety Whistle.)<br /><br />BTW There are seaman whistles audible through storms. I bought one of those years ago. http://www.stormwhistles.com/Andy Shizenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15215297395548845513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904219782540965444.post-79107472522304472092018-07-29T14:22:18.695-04:002018-07-29T14:22:18.695-04:00I failed in all efforts to whistle for any purpose...I failed in all efforts to whistle for any purpose.
