As I understand it in this application (and as I have said I do not have the nerve to try out Morrie's MP's for fear of the "want me's") the bottom of the reed floats on a layer of air caused by the ridge design of the table. This is the hover craft theory. Please put me right Morrie if this is an incorrect interpretation and explain it so that I will understand. Chemistry took over and my engineering education soon got lost.

To expand - the reed can vibrate freely because even though floating it has no upward movement above the table because the layer, even though not touching the table, is so compressed that it acts as a solid surface. Imagine a multi-ton hover craft skimming over rough water because the air layer and water layer it rides on below is smooth and miniscule in comparison to the water surrounding and it does not have an up and down moment of the water (of course if the waves get too rough the mechanical aspects of setting up the boundry layer fail and the ship becomes a ship and bobbs on the waves). A tough concept to get your brain around for sure.
