Hi to all.  icki, I think you should realize that while the sounds you have
requested may not be copyrighted, any recordings containing these sounds are
and therefore would fall under the Digital Millenium Copyright Act (DMCA).
In other words, downloading recordings of sound effects is patently illegal
even if you're poor and cannot otherwise afford the purchase of these
recordings.

All of that said, if you still want to do this, you might try looking for
natural sound effects using Kazaa, Morpheus or grouckster.  If you do find
something, DO NOT LET ANYONE ELSE KNOW, ESPECIALLY LISTSERVS SUCH AS THIS
WHERE YOU DON'T KNOW WHO HAS SIGNED UP AND WHO HAS NOT AND WHERE PAST
E-MAILS SENT OUT ARE AVAILABLE FOR PERUSAL BY ANYONE.

Despite my negativity, good luck to you and your search.  To all, take care.

Ted Chittenden
