Along with caffeine "Excedrin" type drugs might ease the headache but greatly increase tinnitus. (I know!) =20 On a slightly odd note (no pun intended) my tinnitus includes a very strong Eb that's about 11 cents below standard A440 pitch. While not exactly "perfect pitch" I've learned to use it to my advantage. =20 Jokingly, I told a student I could give him "perfect pitch" for $100.00. I won't tell you how, but it included large caliber munitions... =20 Jim Busby =20 ________________________________ From: caut-bounces@ptg.org [mailto:caut-bounces@ptg.org] On Behalf Of Elwood Doss Sent: Friday, October 28, 2005 10:34 AM To: College and University Technicians Subject: RE: [CAUT] Hearing Protection =20 Another idea in regard to loud noises and ear protection: I found that caffeinated coffee (lots of it-3 or 4 cups each morning) made my hearing real sensitive to various sounds and also the loudness. And its not a good type of sensitivity. It is a bit irritating. I laid off caffeinated coffee and went to decaffeinated coffee and the problem went away. =20 Just my two cents worth. =20 Joy! =20 Elwood =20 Elwood Doss, Jr. M.M.E.; RPT Piano Technician/Technical Director Department of Music 145 Fine Arts Building The University of Tennessee at Martin Martin, TN 38238 731/881-1852 =20 ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
