Interesting... I wonder what the effect will be on hosting companies hosting sites that infringe upon copyright. Are we going to have to proactively scan all customer sites for possible infringement? <sigh> This effort to tame the wild west side of the Internet needs a lot of thought put into it by ...

Air rushing out your mouth with nasal pillows is normal and only an issue if your mouth is open when sleeping because the effectiveness of the therapy is significantly reduced basically to nil. Check your overnight leak numbers to see if they are high. Best Auto machine? I would not know these days....
