br> Akron, Ohio /p> p> BEEP BOPPED br> Re: Lawrence Henry's Beep, Beep, Beep : /p> p>I read from my home office Lawrence Henry's article on things that beep. I did so while an excavation contractor was using his equipment to repair my flood-damaged driveway. As a result, you can guess the background noise to my reading of his article... br> -- Mike Landry br> Fayetteville, Arkansas /p> p> Great story. It's the shrill noisy beeps at Chevron gas pumps that I hate. They shriek. Yikes. Anyway, your story reminded me that we had a "beep" that was sounding quietly and somewhat randomly. Heard it in the quiet of the night. I slowly worked my way around the house unplugging, disconnecting, standing and listening quietly. Took several days to finally find the battery-powered smoke detector on a book shelf behind some books. br> --
