Also, never underestimate the sound dampening power of foam backed curtains and acoustical tiles on the ceiling. It doesn't stop the noise, but it dulls the sharpness, says the sound sleeper (me) who lives next door to the weirdo who likes to work on his pickup truck at all hours of the night. (He has to do it at night, because otherwise, the disability people might catch him at it, cut off his checks, and he might actually have to work for a living.)
