Looking back at this posting, Ive noticed a very foolish error that I
made in editing. I inserted the sentence about the quietest level that
the Radio Shack sound level meter can measure in the middle of what was
intended to be a paragraph about the sound level that is the "discomfort
threshhold" for humans
The one paragraoh should read:
The "discomfort threshhold" for humans is around 114
dBA. This is the level of sound about 500 meters from
an average jet airliner.
And this sentence should be out by itself, unrelated to that pararaph,
and certainly not in the middle of it:
The quietest level that Radio Shack's top-of-the-line
sound level meter can measure is 50 dB.
