"High Tech Pain Killers"

".... one of the hottest parducts showing up in catalogs and stores;  The Somatron Recliner Cushion ($995.00) looks like a plush gymnastics mat; in fact, it's designed to increase circulation and relax tight muscles by vibrating in response to the sounds emanating from a stereo or TV set."

"Back to the Future"

(salesperson) "Oh, well, then come over here!" she said, excited.  "You must try the Somatron! This thing is so cool".  She sat me in a black chair, then moved a lever, and suddenly my feet were above my head .... "That's the position the astronauts are in when they take off!  This is zero gravity!" she said.  "Come on, we'll go for a ride."  Then she turned some dials and muttered something about decibel control, and there I was in the astronaut position and .... music was pumping into my back."
