REFLECTOR: Safer seats

[Brainard, Jerry]

I have been looking at seats for a couple years.  John you picked
out my favorites when cost is no object.  However, there are many in
the $300-$500 range that are very acceptable.  What you may not have
notices is that these seat also use viscoelastic foam (aka memory
foam).  Of course with more structure you get more weight.  These
seat are going to be in the 25-30 lb range.
 
Here are some more links:

A particularly interesting seat in base size.

which case one can purchase a carbon fiber version).

	There are seats for race cars available that are very light
and designed
	for high speed car crashes.

	Yeah; I wonder how many bars of gold it would take to get
one (@$470/oz) . .
