Default Foam

I got this link here several months ago. It looks like a good value and I plan
to pad my tush with it.

Scan down to the custom cut memory foam.
About five years ago I bought foam for seat cushions at Oshkosh. It is very
comfortable.

I need some more and don't remember the company that sold it. Any ideas?

You are probably talking about Confor-Foam and you can get it from
McMaster-Carr for a little less than anywhere else I have found.

I like conforfoam or temperfoam cause it feels like soft female butticks.
Make that soft *supple* female butticks.

Just about as expensive too.

I can call them butticks if I want to.
It was an intentional misspelling, Urbin.

Call buttocks anything you like, Latchless.

Call the fork you put in your mouth a DICK,
if that turns you on, too.

And adds 11 or 12 pounds to each bucket seat!

Still, after a week in the Taylorcraft, it just might be worth
the expense and weight...

The guys at work were passing around these magazines about 'tricking
out' cars. You know, the little japanese cars like in that 'fast and
furious' movie. They advertised racing seats that looked very enticing.
Thin, molded, and covered with temperfoam. Anyone have any experience
with these seats?

I love these bozos...

They add spoilers to the back of front drive, front steering cars...
They add skirts to the bottoms which probably cause more interference drag
and add more weight than anything else...
They add ZR tires on cars that'll probably never approach the need for the
low profile...

People pay more for high octane gas thinking it's better under the
assumption that since high performance engines require high octane, that
high octane = high performance... when high octane gas actually has less
energy by weight. (You should use the lowest octane you can as long as you
don't suffer from detonation... because that's all the octane rating is)

And my all time favorite... people who install those windshield wiper
pressure vanes on the BACK wiper of their cars, where the airflow is
actually working against them!

Reminds me of the time I was in college and needed to replace the muffler on
my car. I stopped at Midas and looked through the book... the cheapest
muffler they had (not the one I bought) was a nearly straight pipe (I'm
guessing it widened somewhat, but I didn't have a micrometer with me )...
on it's short list of features was "High Performance Sound" aka, the muffler
didn't muffle... LOL

After all, if it LOOKS fast, it must be fast... scoff

Eric
