Re: Looking for a Resmed S9 VPAP Adapt machine...

TIP: Finding somebody willing to sell via PayPal is also a good idea, since there is at least a basic level of fraud protection. Paypal IS fraudulent, owned by the very fraudulent company, ebay. If you can pay by credit card, most credit card companies give you much greater protection. (Paypal will...

Re: OT: Spinning statue spooks museum bosses

Geez, can they really be that stupid, or are they just trolling for publicity? There's probably a source of vibration nearby and it's moving around the same way as a cell phone on vibrate does. It's like a vibratory feeder. Here's a video of one. In case it's not clear, the bowl doesn't rotate, it ...

Re: Weird question - twitches and jerks and vibrating

Does anybody experience a weird thing with their nervous system when they are half awake... I am just wondering if I am just plain weird... Nope, you're not weird, just having an issue and looking for a solution. I don't know if this would work for you, but as all the nerves in your body travel thr...

Hey Sheriff. Looking at your avatar, I don't see any marks, in fact, come to think of it, you remind me just a wee bit of Jackie Gleason; are you two related?

Re: 9,000,000th question about RAINOUT

ResMed recommends that you do NOT use a hose cover with the ClimateLine, because it will make the hose too warm. I disagree with ResMed, the hose temperature is adjustable. Having used this cover from the beginning, I have had no problems with hoses, temperature, heat, humidity, noise, pressure─jus...
