I have included these sounds on my Linux WWW page, which you can access
with your favourite WWW client (such as Mosaic) at the URL:
	http://sunsite.unc.edu/mdw/linux.html

Of course, you'll need to be able to play sound through your WWW client;
Mosaic fires off as process called "showaudio" to do this. I have
"showaudio" linked to /usr/local/bin/play on SunOS systems, which
does the trick.
