Yes, Ferdinand Feghoot certainly was the greatest of all travelers in time and space. Once in 1840 he stopped in to see his friend, a great chief of the Cheyenne. The chief was a paragon of the Cheyenne Way and had counted many, many coup in his days. His coup sticks covered his tent, up the walls and strung across the whole top of the tepee.

Suddenly a fierce thunder storm arose as only are seen in the vast plains of America - lightning blast followed lightning blast and the massive crashes of thunder seemed uninterrupted and endless.

Amazingly, however, inside the tent all was calm, nearly silent.

Feghoot was stunned - "How can this be, Chief? How can it be so quiet in here?"

The chief simply pointed up and said, "Acoustical ceiling."
