Finally, after years and years of thinking about this, someone's actually gone and done it.



To explain my statement above, when I was in high school I spent many a weekend in a van full of band geeks trucking down the road to honor band festivals, and we'd always invariably reach a point where we were so bored that our band director would edge off the road enough to hit the rumble strips, at which point we'd all completely geek out and try to figure out the pitch of said vibration at whatever speed we'd reached. We postulated that someone should and could do something like what they did in California, but of course when they did it either the speed limit was too low for the engraving they did or they were all completely tone deaf (I'm voting for the former, because it stands to reason that they wouldn't waste all that effort for the pitch to be off.)

To be fair, Japan had already had done it a while ago, but it's something that makes me chuckle nonetheless.
