Are there many piano techs who are veterans?

Nope, not here. Even as a very small child, I noticed that silence 
paradoxically had its own sound. It wasn't the unpleasant tinnitus that so 
many have. I kind of miss it in a way. The world now has so much white noise 
that the only time it is possible (around my house) to here silence is when 
we have a power outage.
