Well, if you're using earbuds, it's not as apparent. No one is calling you stupid, least of all Paul Scheele. Just helping folks get it right. Shoot, I've put on my headphones backwards at times. Sometimes you just grab 'em and aren't paying attention. It is kind of Paul to let me know I've done that. My headphones fit exactly the same whether backwards or not--and earbuds, I'm never sure.
As for the "noise"--at first I was put off and confused by the two voices talking at the same time. But that's why it works so well--the conscious mind is kept busy with one voice, while the other speaks more directly to the other consciousness.
Even so, I'm always reminded that one size seldom ever fits "all," so it could be that they work for some better than others.
