Hi Spridgeteers,
It's been a long time since logging on and I'm still reading old mail to
catch up with you guys.
But I want to throw my 2 cents in on the mattress. I have a lousy back got
a Sleep Number that goes to 100 (who knows the psi it's their values) and
it is the only thing I can sleep on with the exception of the floor.
Unfortunately I've been at 100 for months LOL.
Be well,
Lin
