Are there many piano techs who are veterans?

[Allen Wright]

Alan,

Yea, that comes with middle (and advancing) age...   every month or  
so when I'm standing with backlighting in just the right way, my wife  
notices some new rogue hairs emitting from the ear area, and is kind  
enough (partly out of self-interest of course, because she doesn't  
want to have to look at them!) to take out her Swiss Army Knife  
scissors and do a little lawn mowing. (I do my own eyebrows and, er,  
nose hairs).

Pardon me for sharing this, which may be way too much information for  
some - but it's the only way to keep undergrowth in control. If you  
don't have a willing wife, there are undoubtedly professionals that  
will provide this service   : )   called hairdressers.

So despair not, there is an answer to this little problem. And  
frankly, sometimes I'm led to wish more people would avail themselves  
of it!
