Thanks Kostas, and everyone, for the suggestions. I'm ordering the Stofen and I also found this: http://tinyurl.com/4sj6t I had an inflatable diffuser once called the "AirBrella" and it worked well, it's no longer made but this looks similar. The AirBrella had an elastic band to hold it and this one uses Velcro but for $21.00 I'll givbe it a try. They say it only costs one stop, that's good. I'm sure I'll use the Stofen more but the XTC is probably a bit softer.
