    Cochlear Implants Decrease Your IQ?

    Matrix, coming from the Latin for womb, is a network of interelated numbers or functions. Or to use pop culture...a movie that appeals to "computer heads" and follows a hacker in overthowing a world ruled by AI. Me, I'm okay with both...

    got a question for hearing

    :giggle: I can believe it! Too much noise can be overwhelming, especially if it comes from multiple sources...one of the reasons I hate it when students won't settle down. And too little can be overwhelming for hearing people..

    How visual are you?

    Yes, and you learned it by using your eyes ;) I'm so visual that I find it helpful to read all of my classes' textbooks--I remember the information better if I read ahead...
