My space for screenshots was almost full.  Now there's room for future. Wink

I was a darn good ski instructor for 35 years. Taught over 5,000 people how to ski. Including some that became world class instructors and racers. I taught 6 days a week, mainly nights. Part time job.  

Dave don't worry about me becoming a know-it-all.

Moved to main forum. Thanks!

DaveL, Forgive the off-topic diversion.  I am curious with your ski instructor background, did you ever hear of a character named Cirquerider on Epicski?

Back on topic, I learned a lot from reading, and later editing and updating Robby Sue's Beginner's Guide to SleepyHead http://www.apneaboard.com/wiki/index.php...SleepyHead  It would be hard to read through that wiki and not come away with better skills at interpreting Oscar.

RE: Saddened by my lack of progress with reading OSCAR
sleeprider, I'll check that link out.  As a ski instructor I realized that I couldn't make it a full time job. So I always taught part time and it was a second job.  5 nights a week; one day on the weekend. One day for laundry.  My first ski school had 127 instructors; 4 were full time. They travelled to Australia, New Zealand yearly to teach all year.
I taught over 5,000 people how to ski in my 35 years. A very few became world class instructors with skills better than mine. A few became world class racers.  I learned that everyone has questions. Everyone has goals. Everyone has fears. I always asked what people's goals were. I always asked what their fears were, and worked to give them the skills they needed to take the fears away.

So I ask questions here when I read other's posts.  And I hope that I can flag a concern that others like yourself can resolve.  I see how busy you all are!

I'm on a roll.  I've had a few good nights of treatment lately. Perhaps I've had 9 or 10 good nights now, in 35 years of cpap use.  There's something really small that I'm missing. I"m looking for that fatal flaw.
