Aaah please do quit already, making stuff up as you go in spreading
your delusional crap. Recovering Church-goer nonsense if we ever heard it,
everything you write, without exception.
For starters, the ancestral (utilitarian) form of the modern (recreational)
Yodel has never been used for such distances. Human voices simply do not
carry as far as to be of use for communication which would exceed
mountain-slope to mountain-slope across a relatively small valley, perhaps.
Something like this here:
http://www.mattmarko.com/gallery/albums/Slovenia/Maya_Fighting_Urge_to_Yodel.sized.jpg
If Maya fails in fighting her urge AND she's really good at it, she could
/probably/ be heard straight over on that first mountain; the nearer one.
Probably, possibly, perhaps, perschance maybe. No guarantee though.
Now a "chain of howlers" - call it what you will - for such a task as you
imply above, "warning of approaching Romans across the Mountains",
would easily come out at two to three hundred individuals, each with an
exceptional voice - simultaneously - in order to get the message only
halfways across the Alps at any decent speed. Just forget about it.
Now a Carnyx (and an Alphorn as the later descendant of it) will do a way
better, even wonderful job over up to several miles, depending on topography
and weather conditions, bearing the wind factor in mind, needless to say.
So, on a good day with conditions permitting, you'll reach the farther
mountain-side in the distance there, on the same picture above.
Only the side however --- line of sight --- 'bout horizontal +/- 30 degrees,
which means certainly not over the peaks and down the other side.
It's got something to do with the way sound travels and how it's being
reflected off the cliffs. Air layering according to temperature, too. Peak
to peak...? Not a chance. It's too cold and the air is too thin up there.
- which is kind of a logical dilemma in this supposed "early warning system
by way of sound"-theory of yours, even if we consider powerful instruments
instead of human voices.
You'd still have to have someone who undertakes a good bit of mountain
climbing - with a fuggin' ALPHORN! strapped to their back, who hears the
message from the last one, once arrived halfways up, does a good bit more
climbing all the way to the peak and back down some, don't forget: all
with an ALPHORN! strapped to the back!!!" ... toot the horn, thus passing
the message on to the next one and finally!... make it all the way back
home in time for dinner. Again, all this synchronized with all the others
in the chain of communication, of which you'll need about two-score from
Vedeggio up the Ceneri to Alpnachstad at the foot of the Lopper.
- and that is only from the Northernmost part of the (Roman) Lombardy to
the most South-Western part of (then) Gaul.
Tell ya' what, Mister GoofyPoops of Frozen Legends... Ain't happening!
The solution? Simple. Fire at night.
Go see LOTR's "Return of the King".
Pretty well depicted in there, how it works.
Here's what it looks like in modern real life, as a living tradition:
http://img.fotocommunity.com/Kt-Bern/Berner-Oberland/Hoehenfeuer-a18048283.jpg
(forget the electrical lights down in the valleys of course)
Curious how those pyres are stacked / how big they are? Image-Google the
word "Hoehenfeuer" et voila. Bunch of nice ones there, such as this
http://www.dobel.de/bildergalerie/hoehenfeuer/99.jpg
and this
http://www.stadtgaertnerei.bs.ch/print/pict0011_web_gross.jpg
and yes this too, in spite of the cross
http://www.damuels.at/scms/media.php/13965/feuer5.jpg
This way, you only need about six.
Trust me, it works.
It's been done.
They "won" anyway, but that's a whole different story.
Happy Legal Western New Year to all.

And in the daytime you can see the smoke.
This was done all over the UK (of course not as mountainous as the
alps but the principal is the same) in 1977 to celebrate the Queen's
silver jubilee.

History is History!!!
Gaul is listed the� "HOWL".
The "Werelich" She Wolves, Laddies of Hel, the Boys who wear Skirts, Rome put in the
Lupinaria.
Lugh, one of a few HISTORICAL RECORDS, of a Shape Shifter, Hermaphrodite/Eunuch, which
according to records "Made his Wife",
(OUCH)
From the Flowers.
De Y'ue Zhi is House of the "Fish" (SheChi/CheShi < X) who are the Flowers of Spring and
Autumn.
South Americans still Sing/Wistle across the Mountain's.
But hey the Maian's and other "Children of Corn" had no communications with Europe.
Mochea ( I Believe it is) made their Electroplated Murals of Horsemen in Chainmail after
the Spaniards arrived, not before.
The Greeks lied when they wrote of Blue Haired Beardless God's who painted their faces,
wore Feathers in their hair, and Fringe Clothing, and came from Tera Incognita.
You know, you never heard of such.
Now this all is interesting and on topic.Happy Legal Western New Year to all.

That too, but the people of Gaul were to stupid to make horns, right????
But Rome, said they "HOWLED"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
depending on topography

Thanks Elaine.

Thus the Gospel acording to the recovering former Roman Catholic mass-
goer, Dan T. Felber , goes on ad on - does the world have to continue
to listen to the sad outpourings of this Weeping Willow ? He should
look on the careers of his Felber family in the Swiss Guards at the
Vatican with due pride, heh heh heh .
Cheers,
Michael .
Connors is a former English Catholic , so you should get on well with
him, Dan - maybe help him out in what to him is a massive intellectual
challenge in the Irish School Leaving Certificate that he has taken on
as a " mature " student so as to lend some little academic
credibility to the " Druid School" he heads, now that Dr. Dwyer has
run off with another man !

I didn't Write Roman History, ROME Wrote what ROME wanted You to READ.
ROME, not ME, called the TRIBES OF GAUL the HOWLERS, and told of how in fact they would Howl Messages in advance of the Army.
So you are a LYING BIGOT, and YOU deny the TRUTH to make up YOUR version of History.

Thousands of Tribes all Gathered together against one enemy, you come into my woods "You will be our Dinner Guest"!
Ever read Mat 19:12, rather Interesting, say's it is Jesus telling the Christians "Queers Exist, Get Used To It."
But they find Jesus told them to Judge and Murder.

Well, well, well...look what the cat dragged back into here...actually
I think it's more along the lines of the hairball the cat puked up.
What happened? Nobody wanted to play over in your little "Amen corner"
over at ARD-lite? Not enough followers prostrating to you?
Or did St Canice's let you out for a bit?
New year's amnesty I suppose.
Well, it's been nice for as long as it lasted.
See you later gals & guys!
Off to converse in less nut infested realms again.
Da' Willer ;-)
Dan talking to himself again !
New year, old rhetoric.
I'd call you dumb as a box of rocks, but I don't want to insult the
rocks.
fact is never too old, the truth never goes out of fashion.
I am only ever concerned when I am insulted by a person of
intelligence,
but they usually do not go around hurling gratuitous insult in working-
class Yankese .
Cheers,
Michael .

Well at least your straight out insulting me now, rather than spouting
fire-of-your-ass-on-a-mountain-top-goat-fucking-god type nonsense.
Well done, this is a major improvement, and a step closer to being re-
admitted into the human race.
Like my grandfather used to say...
"Keep it real."

Not "Nonsense", but PURE FACT!!!!!
It is "MY NAME" in "THE LENEND'(S)"!!!!!!!!!!!!
Like it, or not!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your "Opinion", matters little!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your "pure facts" mean less.
No, it's nonsense.

I would suggest to you that you should not pretend to know others when
you do not even know yourself.
What has happened to you to make you run and hide from reality by
hiding behind such crazy symbolic nonsense?
Don't you like who you really are?
These are rhetorical questions and do not require a response.
