Thanx for all the suggestions on & off-list.
Humorous & non-humorous attempting to be humorous
appreciated as well. I had actually come across the
'Earbuds' while researching and it seems I will look
further into them.

Actually I don't think either gender has a monopoly on this.
To explain myself better, I am actually seeking a sensory
deprivation experience. We pick up so much crap all the time
from the hum of the fridge and electrical aplliances to air
vents and fish filters... I don't think most of us most of the
time could appreciate pure silence as a sensory-deprived state.

My second reason is for use with a light/sound machine which
I found to be quite useful for meditation, relaxation and
visualization. It seems the experience could be that much more
engrossing if all external hum and drone could be filtered.

Uh, women don't yell? :)
Trust me. There's no monoply here...

In theory. Most of us don't have that capacity. For instance, other
family member's emotional clouds are often quite difficult to remain
grounded through.

Whoever comes up 'Emotion Cancelling Headphones' will become more
powerful than Bill Gates and all the big oil companies.

In Silence
In Centeredness,
David
