not, but I also don't know anyone who works in the machine

How many retired high-school band directors can you name with perfect
hearing? They're also exposed intermittently, yet every one that I
know is somewhere between somewhat hearing-impaired to almost deaf as
a tree.
That sounded like pretty damning evidence, until it occurred to me
that I know several retired people, from man professions, and they're
ALL deaf as trees. ;)
Either way, though, this doesn't change the fact that I've worked in
datacenter environments off-and-on all my life and have NEVER seen
people using any sort of hearing protection.
