I like the working title a bit more. But I also was wondering, since the tuning fork on the table is going up and down and can't go through it, isn't that basically the Mould effect?

Is this not related to harmonics? 2nd harmonic of base frequency sort of thing.

The musician side of me was a little annoyed that you keep saying "it's a different note" when, for musicians, it's the same note an octave apart.

As a musician (tenor/baritone/bass voice), and a pedant, I am annoyed at +phyphor for saying that notes "an octave apart" are "the same note"; they're in the same position on the scale, but my music director is quite quick to chasten me, when I and others singing bass, try to "pass off" singing "the same note an octave apart."

Well, most musicians would say that two notes an octave apart are so similar to our ear that they are practically the same note. A good evidence for that is that if you ask a non-musician to sing a note that is out of their range, they would probably sing it an octave away.
