Default Mosquito test, annoy your office companions

http://journal.plasticmind.com/ears/...ure-a-youngun/

Entertaining for a short while but much better in a busy office as you can't really pin down the source.

I can hear all of them but I'm only 27 so kinda expected.

Have Fun

Hmm, being bikers, wonder if there is a correlation to the frequency that can be detected and those who use ear plugs and those that don't etc.

That sounds rather obvious now I've wrote it out but what I mean is I wonder how obvious it is, or if the effect is negligible.

Funny you mention that, as the PFY is a ZX-6R rider who doesn't wear earplugs, although at 24 he aint that "Y", and he's passed the "P" stage too.

For the record, at 33 I *mostly* wear plugs

I could hear them all with headphones, put them on my phone & I have the hearing of a 60 year old lol
