Definition of a Hearing Aid

A hearing aid is an ultra miniature

electro accoustrical device that is always too large.

It must amplify sounds a million times,

but bring in no noise.

It must operate without failure in a sea of perspiration,

a cloud of talcum powder, or both.

It is a product that one puts off having for 10 years

after he needs it----

But cannot do without it for 30 minutes

when it needs to be serviced.
