Name: Hank Trout on Jan 17, 2007Comments: I have complete hearing loss in my left ear, which makes my right ear extraordinarily sensitive to loud high-pitched noises like the ear-splitting alarm on MUNI trains. Hearing the alarm is very much akin to jamming a knitting needle into my eardrum and brain. It is not only an obnoxiously loud noise, it actually causes me great physical pain. Why not change it to more dulcet tones like the "ding dong" warning on the London metroFlag

Name: Andru Reeve on Jan 18, 2007Comments: I couldn't agree more! I wear EARPLUGS everytime I have to ride the light rail system. I can't believe MORE people aren't annoyed/antagonized by this noise pollution. It actually goes beyond my hearing; it makes my nerves vibrate in pain when that "bell" (it's NOT a bell by any stretch of the imagination) chimes. This sonic affrontry has been going on ever since the new MUNI cars came into service 7 years ago; why has nothing been done in this intervening periodFlag

Name: Marcia Willner on Jan 19, 2007Comments: I understand the need for for the door alarm. But the alarm that is currnetly used on the underground trains is truly harmful to your ears, and I plan to use my ears for the rest of my life. Each time I ride the train and someone slips in as the doors are closing and that alarm sounds it literally brings tears to my eyes and my shoulders to the top of my head. It is the worst sound. Its easier to listen to a fire truck's sirens than that alarm. If you change it, many people in the subways will be grateful and able to hear wellinto their years.Flag

Name: Gwendolyn Warfield on Jan 19, 2007Comments: Please! A warning bell is important, but the siren is painful and often goes off when not necessary (as when someone gets on the train right before the doors close). It is unnecessarily harsh!Flag

Name: James Edwards on Jan 20, 2007Comments: I truly believe a SADIST invented this chime; nothing else could explain it. How could ANYONE, in their right mind, choose that dreadful, aurally-painful sound Other transportation systems in California and around the world have alarm bells, but they're nowhere near as hearing-damaging as the MUNI lightrail alarms! END THIS NOW!!!!Flag
