I know exactly how you feel. My hearing is also that good. I not only had to stop using electronic timers, but I had to move to the northernmost place I could find in Maine, because so many people have electricity. I kept hearing my neighbor's digital clocks whine all night, since they only lived 3 miles away. I could hear the eletrons in the electricity crashing into one another all night, and it was unnerving. Now, without electricity, the only thing that bothers me is having to hook up the battery to use my computer for an hour a day in my reclusive home in the sticks. > > --randyg@slip.net > --Randy Gardner (on a more serious note, I have been awakened by a mouse chewing on something three rooms away once, and I agree with the television effect thing. The sound is unnerving. But that is more of a sensitivity to high frequency noises that mortals cannot hear, and less of a sound volume sensitivity) -- http://www.geocities.com/athens/parthenon/9573 ______ ____ _ _ ____ /```````/_____ _________ (__ / | __| | | | | / ___\ /______ /______\ __,--^` / /_ | _| | |_| | |___ \ ` /____ ___\ /_____) |____| \_____/ \____/ /_..-----`
