Paul and Les, Interesting. Your explanation makes sense. The ear doctor said he'd never heard of ear plugs being used the way I think I need. For me, it's just this buzzing, as if a whole box of screws were on the board, and only coming through in one ear. There isn't a pitch to it like ringing has. Diane told me that hearing aid technology is changing so fast that one just a few months to a couple of years old can be obsolete.

In order to generate an opposite noise, there would have to be an actual, physical noise against which to generate a canceling noise.
