First; thanks to all the Veterans today. Without them, I'd probably be typing in German or Japanese right now.

This is coming from a "retired" auto mechanic. I have little to no hearing left in my left ear (childhood fever damage?) anywhoo, As I look at the pics of your helpers, I can't help but shutter at the thought of them using grinders and cut-off wheels without hearing protection.

Please get these kids to use some type of protection for their ears!! I have permanent ringing in my 'good' ear as well as what's left in the bad one. Whenever I work on my car or even blowing the leaves now, I HAVE to wear the 'ear muffs'. It's necessary to protect what I have left (only 37). I have a long time left on this earth and don't plan on not hearing.
