Lines: 35 [Sorry, I can't resist this one.] After speaking with my doctor, I was informed that it was time to use a hearing aid:-). Not knowing anything about them, I went to a local store that sold hearing aids and got the attention of the sales clerk. me: "Where can I find hearing aids?" clerk: "We have a very large assortment sir. Can I show you some of them?" me: "Certainly, what's your most expensive model?" clerk: "We have the deluxe Model 40. It has every feature that can be added using modern technology. Some of the features are: AM/FM Stereo, CB Radio, Automatic Gain Control, and many others. The price is $2,995.95." me: "Wow, thats a bit above my price range. What's your cheapest model?" clerk: "That would be our Model A. It costs just $9.95" me: "But that's only a button with a string on it, how could it possibly work?" clerk: "It uses the simplest of technology. You just put the button in your ear and dangle the string into your pocket. People, seeing that you have a hearing aid will simply TALK LOUDER." -- Bill Duffy GenRad genrad!bolton!billd
