[first lines]
Prof. Ned Brainard:
Energy takes on many forms. Example, what do we know of acoustical energy? It was discovered by a famous scientist, right? Wrong. We must give full credit to an Italian tenor who, one night, was singing an aria in a Milano pizza parlor. You all know the story, how he hit a high note, and the sound waves shattered a wine glass on the other side of the room. Watch me, and I will show you acoustical energy at work
[Brainard pulls out a trumpet and a glass. He blows a high note on the trumpet. Nothing happens. He blows a louder note on the trumpet. Still nothing. He blows a longer loud note. Still nothing. He then blows an even longer and louder note. Various test-tubes break on his desk. The lenses on a student's pair of glasses break. Everything behind Brainard is breaking apart except for the wine glass. Then suddenly, the room begins to fill with smoke]
