- Welcome, Dario! We are glad to see you here.
-
- And thank you for your comments about the cochlear implant. One
- friend tells me that he has to avoid security metal detectors in
- airports--the enlectro-magnets set off awful vibrations in his
- metal cochlear implants.
-
- Some airport security officials refuse to believe him and think
- he's trying to smuggle something through.
-
- But even worse than this is subjecting innocent children to surgery
- for cochlear implants. Meanwhile, the doctor rakes in another
- hefty fee!
