Thanks, jnk, at last it all makes sense. . . .


Really? Any chance you could explain it back to me in a way I can understand, then? Because, as usual, I wasn't really listening to myself.

Sorry, correction follows -

Now I understand. So attacking others opinions, facts, truth or whatever, is actually obligatory.

Oops. I forgot.

Sorry, carbonman. I sometimes say thoughtless and careless things.
....sure, that's ok......but really to be up to cpaptalk standards there
really should have been more grovelling......but it's among friends...
so it's all good.

Nah... we were just doing our usual "what if" thing...

But if there WERE technical discussions, there would probably be one or two heated uber doozies... Thank you for asking!

I wish there were live seminars you could go to to learn more about all the software that many of us have. You learn to see patterns and coorelate them to personal sleep quality, but sitting in with some pro's would be great!!! Meanwhile, we all learn from each other right here!!!

Right, so I voted for the closest thing I could think of ("banning them") so as to prevent used car salesmen running sleep labs from posting.

Thanks for the disclosure, Muffy. It would have driven me crazy trying to figure out who that one vote was. Very funny!

Most of all, on a completely serious note, thanks for the amazing posts and your willingness to hang out with non-pros. You don't get the thanks you deserve.

Although there may be no easy way to quantify your record of helpfulness in the forums over the years and the countless lives touched by those posts, when that body of work is considered alongside the number of people helped by your real work, it all stands together as a testimony to the kind of person you are and what you stand for. And the fact that you manage to do it all so entertainingly is a welcome bonus.

So, if you don't mind my saying so, thanks to you and all your identities that were, that are now, and that one day will be.

Hmmm... So is Magnificat any relation to Rested Gal's Basketcat? Because, technically speaking, they both sure seem to suffer from daytime sleepiness. By contrast we can see these Energetic Cats do NOT appear to suffer from daytime sleepiness.

...Just trying to stay on topic.
