- EnlargeEar ... make your ears 20% larger to "bring you back into the conversation".
(It's funny, while surfing the site we found a link to this other great site.)

Looks like this is some kind of tie-in for Michael Crichton's new book. Which, given the anti-scientist tone of his last one, puts something of a different spin on things.
I got the book already! Three days before its release date. But I'm not going to tell you what's in it...because I probably won't get to it until the end of the week. :P
