I've got earplugs and I offer 'em to everyone but nobody uses them. Not that I blame them, I don't use them myself, and I probably do 90% of the colo monkey work by myself. The other day at the hardware store I noticed noise dampening headphones; they looked like the enclosed ear protectors and claimed 27Dbi protection, but they had a line in where you could plug in your MP3 player. I should give something like that a go. _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list Tech@lopsa.org http://lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
