Several years ago, an audiologist told me that my ears are > 40 db down at 4KHz. > Thats called a Carhart Notch in the aid industry, and its the one defect they can't do a lot for. Its caused by loud noises, like sitting at a shooting bench on my place in the black hills in the 60's and wearing out the 1st 3 barrels in an Ackley-06 in a P17 action without benefit of earmuffs. With one tree about 4 feet and left of the muzzle, and another about 7 feet off to the right. Back blast off those 2 trees was substantial. And the last time they tested me, 20 years back I was rated as at least 140db down at 4 kilohertz. They turned it up and up until they thought they'd burn up the phones, but all I could hear was the pink noise in the background. But I'm only down 10-15 db at the lower freqs and down about 20 from 8 kilo's to around 18 kilo's. So my hearing is usable quite a bit of the time yet without aids. > > Now, lets see if I can make apache2 run again.
