Whilst making my scrambled eggs today, I discovered that my fork made a very interesting sound when struck on the edge of a glass bowl. I listened a few times, I was able to pick out a triad of tones, almost diatonic. I tried this with a few forks of the same design, and on different surfaces, all made slightly different sounds. I discovered that the forks had their own individual harmonies, and that the most resonant ring could be achieved (in my kitchen) on the metal handle of the back door.
I also noted that the fork did not have the same harmonic properties when covered in egg.
