So how long a sentence were you able to pull off?

there are meny sites if you google "iron Lung" you'll find it. You can ask me any question you like. heck email me if you want. garfieldhen34@aol.com

Polio was the first use for the iron lung, but these were used for guys with md

I know a fun thing to do because I used to do it. I would try to make a full sentance while it would blow out before it sucked in. You can't talk well once it does and sometimes not at all.

This block has sadly been stolen

For some reason, maybe it's just me, but these machines seem more futuristic than the 40's-50's. Not these machines in particular, I mean the idea behind them. Who comes up with these ideas? LOL! :)

Maybe the soap is so old it is sort of 'breaking down' or something. It's really creepy looking, and old too. The jars look sort of like old mayonnaise jars. Anyway..... ;P

The morgue...everybody's dyin' to get in!
Ohhhhhhh! I know, I know!!!! Terrible! LOL!!!! ;P

Now is the chance for everyone to ask who has had questions as to what it is like to have to use one of these devices, as not only do we have someone here who used to use one, but he used to actually use one of the very machines we are seeing here.

I used to have the yellow one.

Henry, that is so cool!

Yellow was my fav one

good god. I would have burned 6G just on the jars alone.
Awesome.

my wife needs one of these...!!

Hola me encanta el trabajo que estan haciendo y me encantaria poder participar.
