Well, I'm through it.  If anyone is interested, I took some notes of
impressions.  They wired me up like a Christmas tree =)

I didn't sleep too poorly considering all the wires.  Main problems were
the dryness of the air and the fact that it was a plastic coated mattress
(holds in heat).  They got me up at about 5:30am.  I surprised the hell
out of the only early bird at work by showing up at 6:30 (I usually am
in around 9:00).

Apparently if they decide I've got apnea, the technician said they will have
me in for ANOTHER study but with a CPAP machine.  It makes sense, but I was
thinking "Another one?"

Will do.  I find out on July 9th.  And I will definitely listen to your
CPAP wisdom =)
