Oz radio science show interview today with Dr Peter Farrell of ResMed
(`Entrepreneur of 2001'), who claims that there's a marked correlation
between poor sleeping patterns, snoring, sleep apnea and hypertension,
leading to increased stroke, heart attack deaths, etc. He has a gadget that
prevents these horrors. His company's stock is currently low.

Might be worth the medically/biologically trained looking into.

(His presentation was a masterpiece of confident, enthusiastic punny
soundbites, rather irritatingly so.)
