Whispering Gallery at Grand Central

Anyone know what I'm talking about?

If you don't, try this: got to Grand Central. Go to the Oyster Bar and at the main entrance, located on the ramp to the lower level, turn your back to the restaurant, look up, and you'll see a dome on four piers. If you stand with your face close into the corner of one of the piers, you can send a companion to the pier diagonally across the way and WHISPER to each other, and be heard all the way.

Nice, hunh?

Do a lot of people know about this? Can they often be seen doing it?

It's a pretty well known thing that I've never tried. I had completely forgotten about this!

...but not as much as I'm dying for some raw oysters.

It seems to be one of those well-known secrets. Yeah, and I could really go for some oysters now.
