Suggesting names for masks?
Suggesting names for masks?
I was looking at that list of mask names in Susan's poem.
Did you notice how insubstatial all those words are: Oracle. Breeze, Aura, Swift, Mirage, Infinity.
Not a whiff of hint (...) of how annoying the touch of silicone feels on a beginners face.
I wonder if we can make some suggestion too -
The Magic Marker - guaranteed to leave red spots on you face for 5 hours after you take it off
The Howling Harridan - leaky enough silence any spouse
Xantipa's Revenge - ditto
Dreamland - a testimony to the validity of our PR.

Mike, I've got a new idea for a full-face mask for you to develop, but I'm not sure what to call it.
One problem with full-face masks is the area of the seal greatly increases as the surface area of the mask increases, leading to a higher likelihood of leaks. So how about a bag that covers your entire head and seals around your neck? Massive surface area, no pressure on the bridge of your nose and a relatively small seal area.
Heck, you could probably prototype it out of a big plastic bag and a velcro strap! .
Bonus: no marks on your face! OK, maybe some on your neck but you can easily hide that with clothing.
