Good to see the data building, John!

Any thoughts on the high relative numbers in the countryside- often
assumed because of the lower background, but hum is different- as we
know and be discriminated against by long term hearers ...

Also- to me, the motion sickness, which I've never had, seems
relatively high referenced to older reports.
Could this be something new, coming in more commonly ?.
