I dunno what caused mine - but, it seems to be permanent. It does, 
however, seem to have a variable volume level. Most of the time it is 
just a perceptible mosquito whine. But, sometimes it gets really 
annoying. Mostly in my left ear ... but, not always.

I suspect it is a result of too many unmuffled engines, both piston and 
turbo-jet, proximity to firearms discharges - sans ear plugs, clamping 
on headphones and cranking Steppenwolf, etc to the threshold of pain - 
not to mention the occasional Greatful Dead concert. The last of which 
that I attended was at Arrowhead Stadium and got noise complaints from 
Claycomo, MO, some thirty miles away.

Back then I was bulletproof and macho and who needed sissy ear 
protection. (sarcasm off)

If someone develops a treatment I will do whatever it takes to get the 
money to pay for the procedure.

  Boiled and stewed lobsters (and crayfish) were very popular among
  different people - noblemen, bourgeois, monks and working people.
  Lobsters (and crayfish) were a must with beer and beer was brewed in
  almost every Russian house. And Russian cooks made delicious crayfish
  oil that was a feature of Russian cuisine.
