Subsonic update 2

The BOSE headphone look spiffy, are comfy, produce great sound -- and actually make things *worse*. While wearing them, I cannot consciously hear the hum any more. But my hindbrain appears to be reacting to both the original hum *and* its cancellation wave, so the anxiety reaction was even more pronounced. I tried it for about 30 minutes before giving up, and was still wired and jumpy for hours afterward. So those will get sent back.

Another night in the guest room. Didn't sleep very well, but slightly better than I would have in my own room (I think).

I've asked M and herooftheage to get a plumber to Deal With It. I breifly considered trying to do something about it myself, but my housemates convinced me that this was not the path of wisdom.
