    I shall henceforth imagine you as Uriah Heep, " I'm a very humble person, Master Copperfield,"

    Not only humble, but also a master of understatement it seems.

    Duly noted. Perhaps a little humility on your part would not go amiss! Or would that be too much to expect?

    My parents tell me the reason I speak loudly was back in kindergarten, as I was going deaf, I would keep talking louder because I couldn't hear myself speak. I still mispronounce some words because that's how I heard them. Took years for me to realize it is "Surprise" and not "suprise."
    We had a wonderful old man in our congregation who was an honest-to-goodness WWII hero. (You knew, because he never talked about it)

    He was STONE DEAF, but we had those wireless "assisted hearing" devices - basically an FM radio receiver - that he would wear with a "cup" over his ear for the sound. He would sit in church listening to the service.

    One day, in the middle of my sermon, I saw him get up and walk to the back to the sound board guys, and yell at the top of his voice "THIS THING ISN'T WORKING".

    Everybody just kinda chuckled a little, and I went on with my sermon, but it's a classic case of - if you can't hear, you assume nobody else can either.
