C-PAP's for sleep apnea, isn't it? Have you consulted a sleep specialist? If not, might be worth a try.

A hearty luch of bean burritos should do the trick for you. Works for me. It will also take her mind off the snoring.

uvulopalatalpharyngoplasty?

Never have any procedure done that wont fit on a Scrabble board.

getting tonsils removed can cure snoring!

Nope

ok, so obviously it can't for some, but my ENT says it can for me, or at least help with my snoring. I just figured it can help with other's.

Is there a feedback device that will wake you, nudge you, mildly shock you, when you snore? Other than a wife? People learn early not to pee in bed, why not learn not to snore?

VS has mostly learned to sleep on his side - but it's taken me twenty years :)

Here are some pretty cool Otolaryngologic surgery pics. The procedure you mention is Radiofrequency UPP (unfortunately, they only have an illustration for that one).

Have you tried BiPAP?

BiPAP "delivers CPAP but also senses when an inspiratory effort is being made and delivers a higher pressure during inspiration"
