...boosts confidence, fosters concentration and increases productivity.

That's the first time I've ever heard these claims made for the noisy, distracting environment of the typical cube farm!

Still, I'd love to listen in on a call with someone at minute 40 when all the background noise suddenly goes dead. Hopefully this would coincide with some opportune moment in the conversation . . .

Big Prospective Client: Yes! I'm glad I was given your number. I did have one more question, though. Can you be at all flexible on your price?

Freelancer: (sudden absolute dead silence)

Hmm, you could get their CD of room sound effects(TM) and on cue press a key to trigger #21 "a room full of gasps of horror" and press a button to time it...
