The Recline Of Civilization? Hmmm...add a pilot relief tube and a place for my laptop... prodigy-news.excite.com Updated 7:49 AM ET September 9, 1999 MONROE, Mich. (Reuters) - Couch potatoes' and sports fans' cries of woe have been heard by recliner manufacturer La-Z-Boy Inc., which has introduced the first reclining chair ever with a built-in electric cooler. The Monroe, Mich.-based company said the new chair, dubbed "Oasis", will be sold at its 2,500 U.S. stores. Costing $899, the chair is armed with a thermo-electric cooling unit underneath a flip-up armpad that can hold up to six 12-ounce cans and features a built-in cup holder. For those who need more than just liquid refreshment, the chair sports a telephone in its other arm to order out for pizza. The phone includes a Caller ID display so that unwanted calls can be ignored and a memory feature that can store up to 99 names and numbers, said La-Z-Boy, the nation's largest maker of upholstered furniture and reclining chairs. Any pre-game jitters can be eased with the chair's 10-motor massage and heat system.
