A ring tone I don't want!

I ran across this article today in the NY Times about a new ring tone teens are using. The premise behind it is the tone is so high pitched that older people can't hear it & they can get text messages in class.
I listened to the tone and it is ANNOYING! Guess I'm not old yet though because I can hear it! :-) I can also tell if a TV is on down the hall even if the volume is off because it emits a high pitched noise as well. http://tinyurl.com/qvgx2 Below the picture is a link to hear the tone and a chart to see if your ears are "younger" than you!
Leave me a comment and let me know if you can hear it or not!

OUCH!! I heard it. Hopefully I won't ever have to hear this ringing on someone's phone.

Oh my! I am either extremely tired or old! I had to hold the compter to my ear.... what does that mean!?
