Mrs. D. About 20 years ago, Alan and I went to a health fair in New York City. We stopped at one of the booths and they had these glasses with green lights (at least I think they were green), I think they changed color.

You could change the intensity on them. Now I have absolutely no idea why they were invented, what they were supposed to do etc, after all I'm almost 60 and completely senile at times.

But I will never forget what happened when I put the glasses on. You put them on for 5 minutes. I think I lasted 2 minutes.

I DID NOT LIKE IT ONE BIT. I took them off and said out loud. This is not for me, no thank you. What on earth were these glasses supposed to do? I wish i could remember.


Also, at the same health fair they had this table that, when you lay down flat on it, the table had a mechanism that rolled slowly up and down your back (really hard) giving you some kind of deep tissue massage. I did not know I had scoliosis at the time. Well, I got off that table so fast you would not believe it. From that time, I never liked anything going up and down my upper back. Maybe because it was too hard.

Now, if I go for a pedicure, and I sit in their chairs, they know not to push a button which turns the back of the chair into the same kind of massage thing, that rolls up and down my back. I say "do not put this thing on, I can't stand it".

Now you could put Alan on these tables and chairs and the man would be in heaven. Me, don't come near me with anything that rolls up and down my back.

I have no idea why I didn't like the glasses (they gave me a headache, that much I remember), they hurt my eyes, (that I do remember).

Maybe I didn't do it right, and perhaps 20 years later, they have improved on the technique??????
