I have a vision that we will figure out an easy way to ensure that children develop wide, deep, healthy and attractive jaws and then obstructive sleep apnea becomes an obscure bit of history.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ycw4uaX ... re=related

It looks like someone was in a hurry to get to sleep and pulled the front seat out of a small Japanese car, but pulled some of the car's equipment with it.

I think it's a twitter or texting device that can be used during REM via telepathy. Some people just can't quite bring themselves to ever disconnect completely from the networked world.

Well, seeing as how I'm still working on getting back to REM, looks like I won't be using it anytime soon.

I don't know, but it would be cool if it was a dream interpreter.

I'm just guessing: Maybe there are sensors in the 'pillow' that detect and compile head movement during sleep--as some kind of diagnostic tool.
What baffles me, is the proximity of the controls. Hit a button in your sleep and everything is all messed up.

Built in credit card swipe so women can shop in their sleep. Good for those 4 AM Black Friday sales.
