After all these sad stories, why bother sleeping in 'em?

Because there's no other feeling than waking up to a pvc product completely fused to my body.

of course but I don't mind cause it's the purpose of nylon to catch the hot sparks and don't burn my other clothes....

I wonder that as well. I did try it once and it was a horribly sweaty uncomfortable experience which I will never ever wish to repeat

if you get stucked to that clothing certainly depends on the surrounding temparature you have at your place.
e.g. I sleep every night in some Nylon windbreakers (not rainwear that is coated) and windpants to stop freezing

It is that time of year when you have to stay warm. Been wrapped up the last few nights in my one piece karting jump suit. Medium weight tranparent vinyl that make a lot of noise when you put it on then warms up and provides that nice cocooned feeling all night. Pure bliss!

I've tried sleeping in several layers of 200 micron GC, GCR and GCB raincoats, but I find that the heat and moisture accumulation becomes uncomfortable after about an hour or so.
