Hmm. The bends. Nitrogen. Guiness....<br /><br />Hey, what if they applied the foam in a pure nitrogen atmosphere? Would it make a thicker sticker foam like the head on Guiness? Just a thought. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><strong><font color="#ff0000">Vote </font><font color="#3366ff">Libertarian</font></strong></p> </div>

A few years back didn't they use another formula for the foam that the bunny huggers got changed as to be more earth friendly? Was the early foam any better about not shedding? If the toxic stuff would add to the foams performance than I say go back to the old way! Just a thought.
