By my count it's a draw. 8 all.

But I really should get more points for discovering the anniversary of the ear muff

That round was won, just, by my own good self, 8 to 7.

So I suggest another round with a search period of 30 minutes.

what say you?

The double post of mine mentions both ear plugs and ear muffs. HAHA

so?

So I get two points for it.

I even posted it twice, once for ear plugs and once for ear muffs

No you don't.

If you want to be precise about it, the headsets worn by pilots in helicopters serve both as headphones AND as ear muffs to block out the horrendous noises.

I will not countenance two points, you sore loser.

I was so happy that I found one with both in it

don't

Well done, and whilst you should be proud, it was above and beyond the call of duty, as the point is for the piece, not for the words/image etc. I'm very sorry.

But there's no need for manipulation.

Your turn.
