A Personal Note 

I  have  been  doing  volunteer  work  for  several  years  with  elderly  people  with 

severe hearing losses, and I have seen the frustration  and anger that are  brought 
on  by  these  losses.  We  now  know  that  many  of  these  people  developed  their 

hearing problems because of exposure to high noise levels when younger. 

Many audio/video systems, as well as  home, portable and auto stereo systems 

are  capable  of  volume  levels  potentially  damaging  to  your  hearing.  Please  use 

common sense and listen to your movies and music at safe levels now so you will still 

have the ability  to  hear and  enjoy them  in  the future.
