    perhaps this might not qualify as the second exception to the quiet
    rule but it neither involves music, etc. or maximum silence: almost
    all my concentration & sleep is aided by 'white noise' from air
    machines. 'air machines' are those 1 or 2 speed smoke filter
    thingies with replaceable filters in the bottom, ubiquitous to most
    flea marts & tag sales. for years there has been one or more going
    almost full time - i close my eyes & my hearing becomes more acute,
    focuses on & analyzes any & all sounds - trucks downshifting a mile
    away, mullet breaching - working with an air machine going furnishes
    a consistent background sound that doesn't go up, down or have a
    beat; a wise move on my part after the results produced by listening
    to a philip glass opera while working. wherever i find an air machine
    i buy it. 2 (one a backup) go with me on trips to drown out those
    sleep-sapping annoying night noises at motels or anywhere - now if i
    could just find a good renewable power source for backpacking &
    paddling trips! 

    ive remember people, skinny dipping can be a frame of mind -
