    I don't currently sleep on a waterbed, but I sold them for two years
    so I figure I've got something to say...

    A. YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE A HEATER!!!!   A good starting temp is
       about 85 F...if you adjust it up or down, the temp of a king-size
       bed will change about one degree a day.

    B. Buy it from the most reputable dealer you can find...bargain dealers
       give service that's no bargain.  A few extra bucks will be well
       worth it...remember, you're going to live with this bed for
       ten or more years...

    C. There are good brands of heaters, mattresses, frames, etc...I don't
       want to post any suggestions, but if you'd like my thoughts (for
       whatever they're worth), mail me and I'll reply in kind.

    D. AVOID SO-CALLED "
