I don't get why anyone would be opposed to wearing ear protection anyways. Loud noises are unpleasant and ear protection is an easy fix.

Though on the other hand perhaps I take it too far by wearing ear protection when hammering in nails or using the vacuum cleaner.

I'll gladly reach for my ear protection even if using a hacksaw is making too much noise. I think my cordless drill, impact driver, and table drill are the only powered tools I use without ear protection (mostly).
