Abstract
As this is being written, I am excited, honored, and humbled but the mere notion that a session has been planned in my honor, even though the full implications of the title “…responding to external stimuli” still escapes me. I am presuming all will be revealed. The opportunity to close out the show, to have the last word as it were, was also a surprising and an unexpected gift. My goal will be to make it worth the audience's while. I will briefly review the accomplishments of which I am most proud, and then emphasize the importance of serendipity in our lives, especially mine, as when I stumbled across an obscure 1/6-page add in the back of Physics Today that led me to a career associated with the ground-breaking yellow foam earplug. The gratitude I have for fabulous mentors in my life such as Larry Royster, Ross Gardner Jr., Don Gasaway, and Mead Killion, will be expressed. Finally, I may share a few brief observations about what might come next in the fields of hearing protection and hearing conservation.
