Several thousands; Yeah, Riiight!


A few hundred here, a few hundred the it all adds up!

(This idea is borrowed from the tale of some report that totalled the
dB heard by someone at one moment: Normal Conversation 60 dB + Vacuum
Cleaner 80 dB = 140 dB !!! Or was it totalled over the day...)



dB doesn't work that way. If both noise sources were +80 dB, the
total would only be +83 dB.
