<< Throughout my life I've had a very odd thing happen with my hearing. It
 happens rarely, once every other month or so. The hearing in one ear or 
the
 other will do a complete fade out and be replaced by a high pitched tone. 
I
 won't be able to hear anything else in that ear. This will last about a
 minute, and the tone will slowly fade away while real sounds slowly fade
 back in. Very rarely, it will be a low pitch instead. I've never been able
 to relate it's occurance to anything, always completely unexpected. It
 would be quite frightening if I hadn't been experiencing it my whole life.
 Does this happen to anyone else, or am I a freak?

This exact same thing happens to me, and mywife, too. As to whether or not
you're a freak, I dunno. You *seem* nice enough....
