   They do far better to seek to relive the thrill of being able to hear Before   
   they became Terminally STUPID!

   They could get hearing aids and be more careful this time to preserve what   
   may remain ;)

   I never thought hearing damaging levels were a thrill - a Scare, definitely,   
   but not a thrill.   
      
   A lot of our current audiences are young, in their teens or early 20's.   
   They seem perfectly ok with our volume levels.  They can still hear.

   On the other hand, they have very little, if anything, worth hearing to   
   begin with ;)
