Interesting Squid that you focused on my response vs. PR's obnoxious behavior which has not been a one time occurrence. And in case you haven't noticed, he doesn't respond to "pretty please" language.

your spewing bad advice and disinformation beause you don't bother to fact check what you say is something that people have to actively counter, for the good of those that don't know any better.
There you go again PR being a fucking Jackass. Yeah, you help people but at the same time, you harass and bully other people who have done nothing to deserve it like englandsf. Big fucking deal, he thought the OP was referring to the apnea board instead of the apnea support forum. The crime of the century. Sheriff should come and arrest him immediately.
+ 20 million, 999 thousand, 998 hundred !! So many folks have stopped posting and/or are so intimidated by palerider that they won't ask a question on this forum. What a shame and so, so not right!

what he doesn't respond to is busybodies that want to control how other people phrase things.

if you've got a problem with the accuracy of something I've said, please bring superior knowledge to the table, I'm eager to correct any statements I make that are factually incorrect.

as far as your foul mouthed bitching about HOW I may say something to someone that's repeatedly spouted incorrect information, and misled newbies, well, madam, you can take that and fold until it's all pointy corners, and stick it so far up where the sun don't shine that you choke on it.

Don't know. It's been a long time since I've been there, too.
According to this link I found by Googling, it's under maintenance. But, it was gradually becoming a "ghost town" anyway.

It was the first forum I went to when I started and I got a great review of my sleep study which was simply handed to me with no explanations. I ended up here primarily though I do occasionally look at other forums.

Funny thing is that while doing my yearly end of year clearing out of my home office, I found my original sleep study from 2006. Thought I had lost it, though I have a new one from earlier this year now.

Is it possible to re-post that review here in case you saved offline?

The sleep study is 8 years old and the review was an eye opener to me since never saw a sleep dr and the Primary who requested the study didn't really know much about it. It was the first time the results were actually described in a way that I could understand what it meant and was quite useful when I started out.

While I do have a graphical capture of the review as it was sent to me via a PM on the forum, but it was never posted publicly to the forum and I really don't see much point in doing that now. The reviewer was a long time poster to the forum but had not posted in close to 4 years the last time I looked.

Apparently it was posted to the forum. See even I forgot that.
