    Nope. But maybe that's because there's been younger people in our house for many years, or because I've been a student, and thus around younger people for the past five years. Women's voices do seem to be getting deeper, though. Maybe it's because they smoke more.

    Women's voices in general, or those that you know personally?

    Younger women's voices in general. More specifically, those of young female university students. There have always been women with 'husky' voices, but these days they form the majority of those I hear.

    Speakers: Zu Omen Def, REL T9i subwoofer. Cables: Atlas Equator interconnects, Atlas Hyper 3.0 speaker cables

    Forget the past, it's gone. And don't worry about the future, it doesn't exist. There is only NOW.
