[quote=Anonymous]Are these people who grew up in cities? I lived in a city til I was 8 and never thought twice about the noise. It meant the world was ticking along all around me. Lots of people living out their lives. Dogs barking to warn baddies away. People drawing attention to themselves, so you knew they probably weren’t up to no good. Sirens going to let you know even if a bad thing happened, someone was on the way to get it fixed up. When we moved, the silence was unbearable and lonely. It felt so unsafe, like anyone could be skulking out there in the darkness and you wouldn’t know til they were right at your window. I like and appreciate quiet now, but noise has its own virtues. People moving to the city only to complain about the noise get about as much sympathy from me as people who move into agricultural areas and start complaining about the smell. [/quote]
