Yes, Thank you Joyce.

I emailed the link to my father. (untreated snorer that he is)
He's the kind that has to warm up to an idea for a couple years, so he gets friendly reminders now and again!

Hiya, Folks.

I note from the article that lab testing seems to be a requirement in the US. Here in Australia, I went through a home test. I felt uptight enough with wires and hoses and things hanging off me, but I would have been EXTREMELY uncomfortable having to sleep over in a lab. I don't know whether it would make any difference to my testing, but I suspect I would get hardly any sleep at all in a lab (ever since I was a kid, I've hated sleeping in beds other than my own - as a young adult I always took 'friends' home to my place, whoops, too much information - and as a consultant I travelled interstate a lot and hated it). I notice that the article refers to 'tests' in Canada with home testing - perhaps the writer could have hunted up the experience beyond North America.
