Greetings, When my (late) mother used to take in paying guests, we had one chap staying, who, due to a viral infection, completely lost all hearing. He used to ware something which rested on the bones behind his ears and could hear far as we could judge, normally. the only missing function was positional - having been able to hear before, he could explain when he heard anything, it sounded as if it was in the middle of his head rather like when listening to mono on stereo phones. I nevere actually handled them, so must assume these are bone-touch headphones. This chap stayed with us back in 1988 and I assume technology has advanced greatly since then, in miniaturization, if nothing else. Even though we are now well past Christmas Day and into the New Year, my desires for you and yours at this time of the year will still be found in my signature. Colin Howard, living near Southampton in Southern England, hopes all have enjoyed a blessed Christmas day and are having a peaceful, prosperous and happy 2013, remember the Babe of Bethlehem is not the end of this story, for when he grew up, he died on a cross shedding his blood, so we could be absolved from sin and so have the relationship with our creator, he always intended for us. ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
