Sitting next to me at a chamber music concert a few days ago was Mary Beth
Bennet, a professor at UT who does acoustics work. We got to talking about
non-linear sound perception. She turned me on to non-linear sound
propagation! Here's a little fun page about non-linearities in sound
propagation:

In 1975, Mary Beth Bennett and David T. Blackstock, both at the University
of Texas at Austin, were the first to demonstrate the effect, and this page
discusses one of the more interesting aspects.
