QUESTION FOR THE AGES!

Dear RTB members, can you remember the origin of "KWEEEE KUUUUU." I thought of the sound the other day and, while it is very vivid to me, I can't for the life of me remember where it came from.

I believe it originally appeared in a CoreStates Toss. I'm going to consult the irreplacable "Toss Journal" which is currently in my custody, but I believe we have the original communication!

It's me - the crazy deleter!
I'm back. After changing my clothes. You may ask why...because I laughed until I wet my pants reading the Toss Journal trying to find the origin. I was wrong. I don't think we have the original, but I believe it came from "Bird Call Day." Perhaps considered a lesser holiday, it began at CoreStates for some never to be discovered reason. This is from our archive.

"Let the birdcalls begin!!!!! Ko, Ko, EES, EES, Ko, Ko, Kooo!"

I think, CG, you got involved with bird call day and sent Kewee Kuu.
I think, but I'm not sure.

i thought it had something to do with some sound effect -- like the wind or something and one of us wrote it down phonetically? Sigh.

Or could it be from the old "Star Trek" game?
