This reminds me of the last time I went to Radio Shack to purchase
speaker wire.  The man behind the cash register reminded me to cut my
speaker wire to identical lengths for each speaker.  I immediately
thought to myself "huh!?!?!?".  So I asked him why (playing dumb).  He
replied in a very serious and condescending tone "because of the speed
of sound, you don't want to introduce delays in one speaker".  My jaw
dropped.  Was this guy pulling my leg?  I bit my tongue and decided not
to engage him in a discussion about how electromagnetic energy travels
at the speed of light and NOT the speed of sound. :-).
