A world renowned expert in the sounds of European Wasps is walking down the High Street one day when he spots an advert in his local record shop for "Wasp sounds from around the Globe". On further enquiry he discovers that a vinyl recording of this subject has just been released and a few copies are available in store there and then. Naturally, being a world
renowned expert in the sounds of European Wasps he is curious and asks
the young chap behind the counter if he can have a listen to "Wasp
sounds from around the Globe".

A few seconds later the world renowned expert in the sounds of European
Wasps is standing at one of those little sound stations with his
headphones on and a puzzled expression on his face. He removes the
headphones, walks back to the counter and catches the young sales
persons attention. "Excuse me" he says, "I'm a world renowned expert in
the sounds of European Wasps and I've just been listening to "Wasp
sounds from around the Globe", and I must say, there appears to be some
mistake. Those are no Wasp sounds with which I am familiar". The young
man dutifully checks the recording in question and assures the world
renowned expert in the sounds of European Wasps that he is indeed
listening to "Wasp sounds from around the Globe".

Puzzled, the world renowned expert in the sounds of European Wasps
returns to the headphones and once again begins to listen. After a few
seconds he once again returns to the counter and accosts the young
fellow there. "Excuse me" he says, "As I mentioned before, I am a world
renowned expert in the sounds of European Wasps and I've just been
listening to "Wasp sounds from around the Globe" and I have to say
again, those are no wasp sounds with which I am familiar. Are you
certain I have been listening to the correct recording?" Slightly
exasperated by now, the young man checks the disc currently playing and
with a slightly sheepish grin confesses:
