Clownshow,

I'm leaning toward Terra Firma Scuba Gear - Scuba for short, but I'm not sure as I've only used it once. Sarge seems like a good name as I looked at my girlfriend last night and said "I am going in Sarge". I'll let you know the final decision.

Fighter pilot's mask.

And I noticed someone else in the forum called it his "Buzz Lightyear gear".

If I was younger, I'd call it BCA (Birth Control Alternative). Still thinking of something catchy. Something like the Flatulance Fan

Name for CPAP

Post by Guest » Wed Jan 26, 2005 1:24 pm

I affectionately think of my CPAP as "Muucav".

I'm sure many here will have absolutely no problem figuring out why that is. The big question is: who will be the first to post the answer? Heheh!

Clownshow,

Not unless they spell "Vacuum" different where you live.
Sincerely,

Vacuum in Reverse

Heheh! You guys are quick!

Dr. Colin Sullivan invented the CPAP---and he did use a vacuum in reverse on that very first prototype!
