1988 Press Photo Sean McLaughlin tells Santa his wishes through whisper dishes

Even talking to each other from across a room, Sean McLaughlin, 5, of Wauwatosa, and Jesse Glass as Santa Claus hear each other perfectly, thanks to the Whisper Dishes at Discovery World, 818 W. Wisconsin Avenue. The two communicated Christmas wishes Sunday at the museum of science, economics and technology. The two whisper dishes collect and focus sounds waves.
