For a little twist to this interesting lab. If they could have gotten all the
radio stations to play the same song at exactly the same time and then have
the kids dance to the music. I think the vibration would have been more
sympathetic in nature causing a bit more shake.

There are signs on a balcony in a hotel in Kansas City that reads "No
Dancing". A while ago it collaped. They found out it was because a wedding
reception was being held at the time it collapsed and that everyone was
jumping up and down to beat of the music. Setting up sympathetic vibrations.

LONDON -- About a million British schoolchildren succeeded in causing an
earthquake Friday, jumping up and down simultaneously in the world's
largest scientific experiment.

Thousands of schools throughout Britain were asked to send children to the
playgrounds at 11 a.m. to jump up and down for a minute in hopes of
creating a measurable quake.
