[QUOTE="malus handle, post: 2549152, member: 97655"] and a few Grateful Dead speakers, in my life. I know that a blind person can "hear" objects in front of them, can a deaf person see deeper into things? I tried hearing aids , for awhile, but the doctors couldn't understand why I only wanted one, and , except having it paired up with tv, they plugged up my only ear. And I did NOT need any loud noise. When it comes to loud noise now, ..I wish i couldn't hear it,.. It "freezes":cold: me and sometimes makes me jump.:wtf: no fun.
