[QUOTE="JRSherman, post: 1327755, member: 13432"] Yep. I deal with it every day, and much like PowerMan, I have to leave a movie running to get to sleep. Mine started after I worked at a feedmill for while. We had hammer mills that ground corn-imagine 2 canoe paddles made of steel welded end to end, spinning at 1k+ RPM, and the corn is fed into it. They run at about 115 decibels, and my young dumb azz went in there a few times without hearing protection. I guess really I'm fortunate I'm not deaf, but my ringing is sufficient that stuff like a 3000# steam line is below my tinnitus levels on average. Most of the time it's a double edged sword. I can't hear my wife in the next room of the house, but [I]I can't hear my wife in the next room of the house. . .:D[/I] [/QUOTE]
