[nagdu] sound beacon

[David Andrews]

APH sells a "sound source" with a remote control.  I also know 
someone who put a sculpture kind of thing at the end of his sidewalk, 
and he could find it with his cane as he went by.  I think it was an 
native american head on a post.

I have steps that go down tho the street, and my house is the only 
one on the block with a metal railing by my steps.  So it is easy to 
find with my cane.
