Belated Thanks to Hardwig
RECEIVED Mon., July 10, 2006
Dear Editor,
Thank you Jay Hardwig! One whistler down, millions to go [“This Blows,” June 2, 2000].
Here in NYC, whistlers are everywhere. You can't go food shopping without hearing whistling (even from the working men). Whistling even reaches into your home. (A whistler recently moved into an apartment four houses away. On our second floor, with one window closed, the other half open, his whistling fills the room.) Aside from the loud, the tone-deaf appear to enjoy whistling and do so at every opportunity. If asked to refrain, they invariably refuse and become belligerent. Why do they think everyone enjoys hearing them? With so many people sharing public space, what if everyone insisted on filling this public space with their own choice of audio?
Once again, thank you Jay Hardwig, and welcome to my world. I suggest you get headphones.
