and they work so well they are driving me nuts. Road noise in the cars. Pots and pans banging in the restuarants. Somebody elses kids bawling. I evn hear the coffee dripping in the coffee pot. Footstep on the side walk. All those sounds that normal people hear are rather irritating.
Sometimes one can appreciate silence. Is it better to hear nothing than hear everything? I think years of tractor driving without cabs and less than desirable cabs wrecked my hearing. The new hearing technology is simply wonderful compared to a few years back. But it is still irritating hearing what you would rather not hear.
