	I, too have a slight tinnitus condition, but as far as I can tell, it 
seems to be all related to muscle tension.  I discovered that if I jut 
my chin way out (straining the muscles) or open the jaw such that the 
muscles strain, the ringing gets significantly louder, leading me to 
suspect that the condition is tension-related.  Anyone know anything 
about this?

I suppose one day I'll actually get it checked out.  It's not very 
onerous, but it does annoy me in that I can no longer hear my pulse in 
my ears... which sucks.
