Sound effects enthusiasts like John will recognize the Wilhelm Scream, even if the rest of us are oblivious. This item in Freakonomics provides several neat examples of "Wilhelm Screams," or features/messages that are hidden in plain sight, understood only to people with particular knowledge. They include a court decision that incorporates Talking Heads lyrics, cartoonist Al Hirschfeld's Ninas, and a video compilation of actual Wilhelm Screams.
