    Vector? Victor? somebody calling me......got in trouble today for 3 times I did not hear what was expressed to me on the left side.....others may be speaking 5 by 5 but my left ear reduces it down to a 1 especially in a certain range of frequency....sheepishly now I say I probably spent the cash that could have bought a hearing aid on guns earlier in life which I am still enjoying shooting, (I always use ear plugs) but the money is spent and sometimes I am guilty of enjoying the silence a little too much.....I have been hunting for a quality hearing aid but they are not cheap as I am finding out and am wondering if I shouldn't pursue a pre-used one as I have gotten lucky doing that with computers over the short life I experienced from expensive models. It sounds bad to talk of a "used one" but it is such a gamble anyway as I remember how many have been purchased by others and laid aside after a short time..... guns/hearing aid guns keep winning.
