I hope it doesn't kill!
by Joe Real October 3, 2007 7:50 PM PDT: I just hope it doesn't shift your head and twist your neck until you die to stop the noise.

With the computerized expansion and contraction of various air compartments, there is a potential of computerized asphyxiation and ultimately death. But it would be painless.; Reply to this comment View reply

Snoring Pillow
by ComfyRest October 7, 2007 7:47 AM PDT: At the risk of sounding like a spammer I feel I should tell you of an alternative remedy for snoring that even works with a CPAP mask. My snoring was a problem for the spouse. My wife would often wake me to stop. We found an unexpected solution that has stopped my snoring: The SquidFace and ComfyRest pillows. The snoring relief on my back was an unexpected benefit of an invention I patented for being able to lie facedown comfortably and breathe without turning my head to the side. Also great for power naps. Snoring relief and many additional pain relief benefits are on my website. SquidFace.com; Reply to this comment
