DITTO !
Many times in the past I simply did not hear everything that was said from the television or miz micro..
She finally put a gun to my head and made me go to an audiologist for testing.. lol!!!
I discovered I have acute hearing loss in both ears in certain audio ranges. Doc thinks it is from decades of hearing the loud banging of mechanical presses in the plants in spite of so called hearing protection..
SO I Am using this as a learning opportunity.
