How to Identify Ourselves
how should we identify ourselves as people with sleep apnea/ those of us who use CPAP? Hoseheads? Apneans? PAPers?
People with Sleep Apnea seems like such a mouthful. Any ideas?

I've been kinda partial to "apneans" PAPers looks like "papers" to me even w/the capitalized PAP. And altho I've used PAPpers, it is kinda clumsy. I've never been particularly fond of "hosers" or "hoseheads" and not all that wild about "apneacs" either.
But I gotta admit, that "he's a papper, she's a papper" reminds me of Dr Pepper's catchy commercial (yech stuff to drink, blech!) I kinda like..

It may be cute, but using it has a host of legal issues which must be addressed, including copyright permissions, trademark permissions, and quite possibly, a few others.

We have a few people in the community that make shirts, I may see what they could do as far as the cost, etc. Anyone else interested if I can get a price?
