Hey, yahoos....

I have been watching this unfold from the shadows.
I also was a demo guy....but now, I realize I'm just a yahoo.

I did make a good faith effort to make this work, eventhough
I was sent an XLarge setup. Thurs. I received a requested
different size. A large. I figured I needed a med at the largest.

In consideration of the documented attitude of the inventor,
I will be returning, at MY cost, all of the equipment that was sent to me.

I have also been testing the full headgear Papcap.
It is a well thoughtout piece of cpap equipment, that I have
been using w/great success and comfort for 2 wks.
The inventor of the Papcap seems to have a much different
attitude and customer service philosophy.

I'm a yahoo, you're a yahoo......everybody at cpaptalk is a yahoo.

How about adding an invoice for your time billed to him?

Sixteenth century fellow yahoo and French apothecary, Nostradamus, predicted the exodus of strapparatus in the early 21st century.

Amazingly clairvoyant, albeit ambiguously written if you ask me.

Did our friendly potion pusher also predict the downfall of Pablo? your aunt Weeza's trojan laden lifeguard boyfriend?

How is aunt weeza this days? Has she survived this major breakup in her life?

Coincidence that you should ask. That same Nostradamus quatrain speaks of a dispossessed peddler who is forced to "purvey nautical mapparatus". My guess is the yahoo, apothecary, and seer placed those two in the same quatrain simply because "mapparatus" so nicely rhymes with "strapparatus".

Anyway, Pablo is selling GPS units at a rundown oceanside marina in Wyoming, exactly as Nostradamus eerily but vaguely predicted. Ironically Aunt Weeza recently acquired that Wyoming marina so Pablo is still in her employ.

Yeah, after the "Mumbo-Jumbo" Thread, I had some serious questions about that "20 years of critical care experience".

I believe those posts were simply a thinly-veiled attempt to gain instant "expert credibility" to push the product, but merely served to expose the sophomoric technique of "name dropping" (Poiseuille, whose Law was only half of the overall principle there), concepts that were irrelevant and a few outright errors.

You have to admit, the discussion on K1 - K2 was pretty good for a bunch of yahoos.

Speaking of thinly-veiled, this is really just an excuse to post another baby picture.

Aromatherapy may help CPAP compliance. Lavender, Mandarin, Chamomile, and Sweet Marjoram aid in relaxation and sleep. Nature's Gift has these and a blend of all four called SleepEase.

Yes your neighbors - I am so glad that ocean isn't the same one as mine!

and for any who wishes to know about Aunt Weeza, I think the bulk of information is on (or just do an advanced search for her) -
