Also I have found out recently that sleep apnea can also be caused by 2 70 lb dogs sleeping on the same bed with 2 adults.

They are supposed to sleep next to you, not lay on top of you!!! For all you youngsters out there that do not remember the band "Three Dog Night" who wants to put up how they came up with that name?

As if the youngsters cared. But as the super seltzer proponent I feel compelled to answer. Despite your warranted skepticism as to Wikipedia, in this instance, the write up comports with what I remember hearing on the radio from the disc jockeys back in 1965. Apparently the CD set spelled it out.
[quote]The name

An official commentary included in the CD set Celebrate: The Three Dog Night Story, 1965-1975 states that vocalist Danny Hutton�s then-girlfriend June Fairchild thought of the name when she read a magazine article about indigenous Australians, in which it was explained that on cold nights they would customarily sleep in a hole in the ground while embracing a dingo, a native species of wild dog. On colder nights they would sleep with two dogs, and if a night was especially cold, it was a "Three Dog Night"[/quote]

I am really starting to undertand why others say that your life will never be the same again. It's the things that pop up as you go through life. They all don't happen at once, but they do happen at some point. I am grateful to have found this group to help identify some of the side effects of it all.

That is the correct answer. A three dog night is one frackin cold night. But as I understand it, they didn't sleep with dingos, but domesticated dogs. A dingo will eat your face off in the night given half a chance. Take your eyes off of your children when in he outback, and they will take them down and away as well.
