(I need to get a new avatar. Don't look so young anymore.)

Huh? In a perfect world there are no laws.

Today was my yearly appointment with my sleep doc. I brought my netbook with Sleepyhead installed--showed him my data. He was impressed ! He was not aware of Mark's brilliant creation. I gave him the link. He says he prefers the Autoset over any other machine and will NOT prescribe an Escape. I thi...

Happy Valentine's Day to all my fellow CPAPers! Weather totally screwed me. Stuck in Bridgewater. Had hoped to be home to my Valentine Saturday night. The way it is going won't be home until Friday a week. Anyway, all you dudes have a Happy Valentine's Day! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4DVpH_j6Pk
