Oh, but there is.........hearing aids.......to a point.
And they are a LOT more expensive than $19.95 headphones. One error with
those $19.95 headphones causing subsequent hearing damage and one will find
that a pair of hearing aids will greatly exceed the cost of the Orion II.
Neither are covered on medical insurance.

Good point Bob! I worked at an auto assembley plant (one of the big three)
that used to let us use walkmans. Low and behold, after a few months, they
were getting a noticeable rise in hearing loss work comp complaints.
Shortly there after, that privledge was gone. We could still have radios
at a reasonable volume. We don't want our hams in the "Pete Townsend"
category. As far as I know, there is no cure for hearing loss.
