My wife hears the bell, lol.
For a little while during about a three week stint it was happening at three in the morning for several days in a row. I would start with the sentence, "Did you?" and before I could finish she would say "yes".
No the bells never tell me to do anything...lol.
FWIW, I think that some people hear voices in their heads and then some people REALLY hear voices in their heads. I have never had either one happen. As far as I know I'm totally sane.If we're unaware of insanity then we are all in trouble. right? It's kinda sad that the people who are like that usually know on some level...especially if they go off their meds.
I just wish this thing would do something constructive like flush my johns for me or restock my shelves.
