Seriously--if you're stupid enough to turn up your ipod to the level where you can hear it on an el train, you deserve whatever hearing loss you wind up with. Of course, since having an ipod seems to be such a fashion statement these days, I get the impression that a lot of people are bringing their ipods on the el just so they can be seen listening to them. This generation is going to have such a large percentage of people with severe hearing loss by the time we're 40.
