Maybe it is a regional thing. I asked about 20 students this morning and they all knew it.

As I suggested that he talk more quietly to the people at his table, he said, "you mean we should use a 6 inch voice." Puzzled, I asked what that meant. His response was brilliant [IMHO]. "It means that you can only hear me if you are 6 inches away." Since I work in a high school, and teenagers know EVERYTHING that is worth knowing [AHEM], when I walk around the room and approach a table that is too loud, I ask them if they know what a 6 inch voice is. They have no idea, but they quickly get my point. Maybe this will work for you, too.
