--============_-1137962984==_ma============ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" ; format="flowed" Dear List, I recently emailed the list with a question regarding the effects of azimuth on sound localization accuracy. Many thanks to those that responded with their helpful thoughts and references. The original posting is included below. For those interested in the responses please email me directly and I will email them to you as a word document.
