It's really sad. With all the warnings that have been broadcast, people just don't believe them. Or think the cautions don't apply to them. They learned a lesson they cannot undo. Well, hopefully, they learned a lesson, some never learn.

I was able to see the partial eclipse.  I was on a gravel road returning from a trip to buy cannabis-infused water my spouse sent me after... By making a pinhole camera with my hand and watching the shadow of it.  It was a little bit underwhelming but at least I saw it.

OK.  We are one week removed from the event.

 

I don't want to know how many folks have signed up for the Hellen Keller introductory course.

 

I'd like to know if anyone is suffering from PED (Post Eclipse Depression).🤣😎

How many of us have hearing problems because we did not use earplugs every time we went on stage?

Fortunately, I used hearing protection starting back in the 60s. It was just shoving cotton balls in my ears, and I had to "learn" the sound like you have to learn speakers, because the highs were so muffled. Later I graduated to "designer" earplugs, and now I use the 3DME from ASI Audio.

 

I wish I could say I protected my hearing because I was so smart and prescient. But the reality is I have very sensitive ears. I used to go bonkers when I walked into stores with "ultrasonic" burglar alarms because the high-pitched whine was torture. So, I used hearing protection simply because my ears hurt if I didn't.
