Mosquito ringtone link -

>> http://graphics.nytimes.com/packages/audio...10_RINGTONE.mp3

The mosquito ringtone is based on the anti-loitering system that was talked about last year... kids have started using it on their cellphones so they can get messages during school hours without adults hearing...

I'm 35 and I have good hearing at high frequencies - it hurt my ears! The cats ignored it though...

Hold on to what is good even if it is a handful of earth.

Hold on to what you believe even if it is a tree which stands by itself.

Hold on to what you must do even if it is a long way from here.

Hold on to life even when it is easier letting go.

Hold on to my hand even when I have gone away from you.

oh man that's an annoying noise. And my volumn was way down.

As for Nietzsche(my cat) i don't know if he could hear, he's lying in my bed and he doesn't speak portuguese nor english, so he couldn't answer me when i asked him if he could hear :P. But i guess he couldn't, well at least he didn't move, altho he never moves when he hears the tv or the sound up :P
