I am not familar with a li-lo cushion.  Al I know is that the experiments I 
made at an oil company research center for years showed me that any motion 
made to a geophone recorded data from the surrounding enviroment.  We had a 
heavy cement shake table and kept recording reflections and refractions from 
the sides and bottom of the table.  Recording the step function response 
worked very well and was cheep to do.
