I don't really understand the cult connection, even after Googling Heaven's Gate (I am too young to remember much about them directly).

But on the topic at hand, I would buy one of these, or at least, I definitely would if I were still in High School. On state standardized test days (normally a half-week occurring a few times per year), I (and many peers) would inevitably finish in about 2 of 4 hours. Of course we were obligated to stay in the room and remain completely silent for the entire 4, so I would fold a jacket such that it fashioned a very poorly-functioning version of this.

The main issue while using a jacket was having proper respiration between my face-down head and the desk. If this product solves this when it comes out (maybe I can try it out somewhere? Brookstone or some such?), I can see myself considering it.




They all committed suicide with cloth bags over their heads. It's an extremely creepy sight and I won't be linking to the photos for many obvious reasons, but...they look just like they're all wearing this product.


You sound like a perfect actor for their next infomercial.
