I wore ear protectors when I made this strip. Not big muffs like
the ones Nerd Boy wore, just ear plugs on a headband. I recommend
trying it out; most computers are pretty noisy. It's just that we
filter it out after a while, but your hearing can still be damaged
by the background noise. Actually, I'm still wearing them now,
enjoying the silence.
"All I ever wanted, all I ever needed is here, in my arms..." I
love that song. Hmm, now I'll have to take this thing off to listen
to that.

Maybe you should stop overclocking your processor or something. My computer produces nothing more than a low hum, and the only way I could hear it was by turning off Winamp. And frankly, if I couldn't listen to music, why would I want good hearing anyway? :-)
