So a nice gentle day for the sound floor crew - once playback speakers
and communications had been rigged there was nothing else to do. ;-)

Well.... if you listen to the sound clip on the Snopes web site, it is
sufficiently muffled to sound questionable.

That's not a function of the original track which was on 1/4" tape at
15ips, but likely from a poor domestic recording.
