I had to go with hearing. Although I have heard, that hearing can be more difficult to be without. The thought being, that it makes it more difficult to communicate, and those who have lost hearing become paranoid, and left out of the conversation. But without sight, I would have difficulty working at anything close to what I am good at now. Hearing would certainly be a hindrance, but without site, programming would be tough, and I don't think that it is good to find your way around an electrical cabinet by touch.

It is said that an argument is what convinces reasonable men and a proof is what it takes to convince even an unreasonable man. - Alexander Vilenkin
If I am shown my error, I will be the first to throw my books into the fire. - Martin Luther
