I didn't want to hijack Fixerupper's thread but it reminded me about an incident I had last week.
Working for a gentlewoman in a fancy house. I retiled their laundry room. She's older, in good shape, still pretty, very kind, sharp as a tack but more than a little hard of hearing. She came in to the laundry room to ask if I would like something to drink; "Coke? MT Dew? bottled water, juice?" "No thank you ma'am. I'm ok." We talked for a bit and I noticed the fly on her nice fitting jeans was wide open. I hesitated for a moment then told her - sotto voce: "Excuse me Ma'am, but your zipper is open." "What did you say?" she smiled. I said a little louder, "I don't know if I should tell you this but your zipper is open." "I'm afraid I still didn't hear you." So I raised my big, deep voice to it's normal tone and just said: "Madam, your zipper is open." She blushed brightly, very girlishly spun around, fixed it, then turned back and said very softly and kindly; "Thank You!" I apologized for mentioning it but said if I was undone like that I would appreciate someone, even a stranger, telling me about it. She said, "Oh yes, you did the right thing." and patted me on the shoulder. Afterwards, I got to thinking that when the time comes, if I become hard of hearing, I hope someone will be kind enough to tell me about it.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
