Binocular Lanyard Lengths

I'd be interested to find out how folks wear their binoculars.

• Do you wear them on a short lanyard, high on your chest
  
• Do you wear them on a medium lanyard, bottom of rib cage?
  
• Do you wear them with a long lanyard, below rib cage
  
• Do you wear a Harness
  

I prefer short, high on the chest. Less strain on the neck that way, IMHO. I've tried a bino-harness, but don't like it. I prefer to be able to remove my binos quickly, to hold in the hand (i.e. with the lanyard off the neck) sometimes.

Thanks Sancho. I'm trying to get as many responses as possible on this pretty unscientific survey but think that the results will be interesting see
