Nevermind, I found it. Thanks for the clue.

12:23 am

4t8

it spells out the sound - this is a sort of fast one. um, i forget what the other one is called.

12:25 am

4t8

:) sure

12:25 am

boatierra

Pallendrome, or palendrome. I don't remember which way its spelled.

12:31 am

Palindrome? Maybe....I'm too lazy to find the correct spelling.

1:12 am

boatierra

The one I have is the sound of a great wind...I'll look for the shushing one.

1:15 am

4t8

It's archaic.
