Now that does make sense. And as for the fun of foam in the hair? .. Well, in my case the dome is like the coolant pipe - nothing on it to prevent heat loss. It's so smooth, slick and polished that a fast landing mosquito has a really hard time coming to a complete stop to grab a bite before having to lift off or crash. The added insulation would certainly aid reduction of cranial heat loss in winter, and then in summer it would aid in preventing overheating from absorbtion of too much solar insolation. Additonal mosquito protection, too. <Grin> Here's to foam in yer hair!!
