1 pt from Kir, not because I believe it, but because I've done this
to old cedar boards that USED to be inside my cabin, but in the
course of the very-long-lasting remoidleing/replacing, are now in
smaller pieces used outside around the lights and outdoor outlets...
They look pretty nifty.  It reflects (but is smoother and easier to
weatherproof) the original pattern left by the saw that cut the
boards (some big ol' humungous circular blade, I figure)

sonica, n. Microscopic stress fractures left in glass by
high-frequency vibration.
