Hi.

I saw the show. I wasn't terribly impressed, although anything that gets the word out is a step in the right direction.

Sally -- it appeared to me -- couldn't care less that these people were suffering from a serious problem. She only cared that she could draw a laugh from the "funny" video tapes of 4 men with heavy snoring and the suffering that their wives had to put up with. A couple of times, because the sleep expert had to create a context for her answers, the answers took a little longer than Sally was apparently comfortable ... so she started talking over the answer and the point was never made.

As glad as I am that there was some publicity, it is a shame that it was done for its entertainment value instead of addressing a serious health issue.
