What ?!

A baby can hear sounds up to 30,000 cycles per second; a teen-ager cannot hear sounds above 20,000 cycles per second; a person age 50 cannot hear above 8,000 cycles; and at age 80 one cannot hear above 4,000 cycles.

Babies might have better hearing, but I know how to hold up my own head, and I don't soil myself nearly as much.

Yeah, and can babies hear the voices in my head? I don't think so! My hearing is therefore much, much better.

It is well known that babies CAN hear the voices inside their mother's head. That is one of the reasons one has to be careful what one wishes for...
