On a related note, can any of you hear the high pitched whine that
CRT-style TVs make?  Especially the older big models.  I've been able to
hear those all my life.  It's kind of like this teenbuzz, but maybe a
little higher Hz, and being right behind some TVs could be almost
"deafening".  I remember riding my bike around town when I was younger
when people used to leave their windows and doors open, and could hear
that tone from some tv sets.
