Yet again on hearing aids



Dear Tom,

Unfortunately, the "system", as you call it, can take your
optimally designed, frequency-loss compensated, and perfectly
fitted device and shove it in the back of a dresser drawer.  I am
told that a large proportion of hearing aids spend their lives in
this location.

Yes, you should ask the "system" what it wants and what it would
be comfortable with, if you want your help to be real, and not
just a perfect solution on paper.
