While not a licensed audiologist, I want to make a quick point.
Our ears hear beyond the normal 20hz-20khz range. We actually can hear up to 40khz, but we are not conscious of the sound. Our brain still responds to sound about that level.
Normal sounds in nature create sound waves and harmonics far above even 40khz, they go on essentially forever. Most headphones only go to 20khz, if that, and most players only go to 20khz. In addition, regular CD quality ends at 22.4khz, but one can encode at 40khz with software relatively easily. But, in order to completely eliminate listening fatigue, one has to have every piece of eqipment, every mic, every sound board, every computer, every connection, ready and able to handle frequencies above 20khz very well.
The thing is, without those upper frequencies, our ears get tired really quickly. Damage comes soon thereafter.
And chances are, until we all get a GIGANTIC stimulus check, and have already bought our beach houses, we won't have a regular recorded media that is good for our ears. My suggestions? Good symphony concerts in the park.
10K is a little high...

It seems to me that 10kHz would sound less like whining and more
like the electronic 12k tone that many hear from the back side of
television sets. I would say that 2-5 kHz would be a more reasonable
frequency range for a high pitch mechanical whirring sound. In fact,
if the Honorable Judge Green were emitting a whirring sound at 10kHz,
the whirring would probably be from some sort of mechanical rubbing.
Considering that most automobiles with excellent lubrication
run about 2.3 thousand RPM at 70mph, and they emit a good deal of
heat, the heat of Judge Green with a mechanical error would probably
be about equal to that of the 7th circle of hell, about where ATT & SBC
will soon be going. Neat, huh...
You know, it really is a shame as an Oregon logger to have the class "B" loggers, those seasonal employees being the most celebrated people of the year. Its a sad day for all of us who have real logging power.
There is actually an injection that you can take that works like a retrovirus and infects your muscle cells with a slightly different DNA, so that they produce 20% more proteins and have stronger myofilaments etc...Its being tested on lab rats right now, so dont expect your enlargements anytime soon.
I think its sad though that the big concern is not using it to help people but rather that there will be tons of athletic scandals using these injections.
Here is a woman who is a biker and rides through the "Dead Zone", she explains in detail all the security, chemical washes, and some interesting things about the dead zone such as: The asphalt doesnt carry the radiation, so the sides of the road are 2x as radioactive as the middle.
She offers the truth.

Ohh but think of all the pretty colors! I wonder if its 256 or 16 million?
God, not another Californian!
