Adding conflict to the conspiracy now? Care to elaborate on the superiority of Respironics tin-foil hats?

You know, I'm really glad you asked. It is a secret, but I'll tell you if you don't tell anyone else. Promise? OK.

The new Respironics Solar-System-One tin-foil hat automatically senses the humidity that escapes out of the top of your head during sleep and makes adjustments based on room temperature. This, in turn, allows your brain to retain maximum humidity while preventing humidity-sensing aliens from finding you and initiating brain-rainout, which, under some circumstances, could lead to alien-induced-hat-related encephilitis lethargica, commonly called sleeping-sickness-brain-drip. No other brands currently have this amazing new preventative measure built right into their tin-foil hats. The inner circle has been aware of this marketing development for years, but was sworn to secrecy about it. Hope that helps.
Aha! So you wear these tin-foil hats to sleep! That's an important detail.

I bet SleepGuy has a hidden link on his website (made available only to the Innies) that leads to the TAPCAP (Tinfoil Armored PapCap).

Newbie or not, Innie or Outtie, I need one - bad! I see lights in the sky all the time here, and I just know they're out to get me. (No, they're not fighter jets doing maneuvers out of Luke AFB, no matter what Luke AFB says. The truth is out there, and Luke is lying.)

So far, plain old Reynold's Wrap has sufficed (thank God!), but I need protection 24/7! Whaddya say, Bret? Can I get one, too?

*Great thread, C-man.

No, no, don't stop. When I was brand-new, I would just skip over them because they made my brain hurt. But now that I'm thinking more clearly, I go back to them, and learn so much. I don't know of any other place to get this information. I think it must take you alot of time and thought to write your posts, and I am grateful to you for teaching us.

I agree with Katie, -SWS. Please don't refrain from participating in the technical discussions. Even if some of us (many?) don't "get" what's being said at the time, the information contained in these complex discussions has much value and can be referred to later on. We all come here to learn, and I know I've learned a helluva lot from you (and Muffy and RG and everyone else) since I've been here.

None of us need any more stress in our lives, but please take a deep breath (or a dozen), and keep doing what you do here. Your input is invaluable, IMO.

Carbonman, you are a prime example of what the hose can do to you!

Ride safe and watch out for ice!

So, which is better... an AUTO tinhat or CONTINUOUS?

...Just about any alien pet bivalves sitting in the aquarium. Thank you for asking!

Thanks to Carbonman, I feel as if CPAP Illuminati awareness is finally improving around here.

SWS: The truth, if it exists, is always in the details. Do you mean to remove one of the paradoxes?

Well, Ok, carbonman see what you have started and I see that you have not made a comment since you started this tread. Must be sitting back and enjoying the reading.

I know how he got this way. He was told put this on and sleep with it but don't take it off. The hose got caught in his pedal and kept pulling his head down into the handle bars. Hence the idea that their is a conspiracy on these boards.

And to think he could have prevented all this if he justy got an 8 foot hose instead of a 6 foot.

That worked out extremely well for me. I originally started this adventure with a sleep doc and a general doc... Of that original pair I'm down to only one. So I say singledoxes or paradoxes... take your choice!



P.S. I'm still deciding what to do about CPAP machines: paraboxes or buy a third? I might wait for the next Carbonman satire or even late-night CPAP Illuminati infomercial before making my final purchase decision... They both take Visa and MasterCard.

None of the above: I have a general doc, a specialist doc, and a sleep doc...and a unibox: Unbalanced. Since you don't list your machines, how will the illuminati help you decide?
