When I was a kid you use to hear the sonic boom from jets breaking the sound barrier all the time. I probably haven't heard that in 50 years. I'm sure in some locales, due to special circumstances, folks may still hear it from time to time. But when I was a kid it was pretty common.
Maybe some techies finally got together with the military-industrial-complex crowd and designed out sonic booms. Sonic booms probably interfer with today's young folks trying to concentrate on their iWhatevers. :B
