What is Apnea to you?

I've had so many issues w/ my mask and what not, and the annoying arrogance of the respiration "specialists" at my insurances designated provider. I'd like to get some solid info on what the rest of you are undergoing.
Would any and all of you please go to:

http://www.fomh.net/survey

and take just a couple of minutes to do my little survey. It would mean a lot and go a long way in my battle with the knotheads at the suppliers.

Thanks to any and all for your help.

I commend your efforts to help change the industry and take it in a positive step. Just completed the survey. Hope you have alot of takers on the survey.

I did the survey..or I tried anyway. But I use TWO apap machines and FOUR masks. I've never replaced a "replaceable" part so I had to lie on that one. Actually I had to lie on a few answers, but hey, they were only white lies. Hope it was somewhat helpful...

It seems to me that this is not a casual personal survey.
It seems like a marketing survey.
And the source of this survey is not clear.
It requires the use of your email address.
And while there is a disclaimer on how your email address would be used, I suspect you will be marketed for a product.
Now, that in an of itself is not so bad, but the post seems to be misleading, IMHO.

I would caution anyone against giving out their email address without careful thought.

LDuyer,

Lately, it seems many people are not what they seem to be.

Note to all!

Hmmm, this one is interesting. The website seems to be a side biz for someone and he is researching supplying WIFI and sells custom cabinets. I would be cautious about signing up for this until the motivation is a bit clearer than "getting some solid info on what the rest of you are undergoing."
And it appears that he has posted this on the asaa board too. Smells like market research to moi.

You sound more paranoid than me!

Guest, I do not understand your comment nor do I see what this has to do with the topic at hand. I see nothing wrong in cautioning people against giving out their email addresses. I've given out mine to places I wish I hadn't, and it fills your inbox. Not fun.

I couldn't figure out why a survey needed my e-mail address so I just put 10 X's in the e-mail box and it was happy.
Also, it seemed like a poorly constructed survey as if the designer knew what answers they were looking for and constructed the survey to get them. As pointed out in another post, you needed to improvise to answer some questions.

I tried to add my hotmail account and it wouldn't take it so I tried another one and it wouldn't take that either...so I just got out of it...

Say, what does this mean in the source code of the survey?

Ah Ha,

confirmation that this is, indeed, a survey for marketing purposes. Someone is trying to figure out how to sell us stuff.

Way to go deltadave, this was exactly the way to figure out this riddle!

Thanks

So, istby2, now this "little survey" appears to be unmasked by the assembled crowd as a marketing tool disguised in sheep's clothing. Care to comment?

This just refers to the "Victorian Rose" stationary in the background of the page.
