I took quite a hiatus due to being too busy to keep up with the emails - I figured if I was deleting over half of what I was getting from the list just to maintain my inbox, that was a definite sign to go inactive! Soooo, I was in some airy fairy gift shop today and saw ear candles and started wondering what "we" (of the piano tuner persuasion) think of such a device? Everyone I know who has used ear candles says they're just incredible, that even if you clean your ears regularly, these things manage to extract all sorts of gunk out of there, thus vastly improving your hearing. Thing is, you're only supposed to "ear candle" once or twice a year because your ears produce wax as a protective measure. So, my thought/question is that maybe ear candling *isn't* such a great idea? Has anyone here done this or heard any scientific research on whether or not it really is a good idea? Yep, leave it to me to come back with some off-the-wall question like this ;) -"ilex" / holly ross ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
