Hi there,

I’m new to polyphasic sleep and am starting up a blog. It was mentioned to me that I should drop you an email and see if you’d like to add it to your feed. I don’t know how dedicated I’ll be about maintaining it, but it’s likely I’ll keep it going for at least a little bit. It’s at nocturnology.blogspot.com if you want to check it out.

Your site’s a great resource; it was a big help to me when I was researching polyphasic sleep!

Pendulum

Quote: We are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones.

October 20, 2009 by jorel314


photo pirated from here

We are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones. Most people are never going to die because they are never going to be born. The potential people who could have been here in my place but who will in fact never see the light of day outnumber the sand grains of Sahara. Certainly those unborn ghosts include greater poets than Keats, scientists greater than Newton. We know this because the set of possible people allowed by our DNA so massively outnumbers the set of actual people. In the teeth of these stupefying odds it is you and I, in our ordinariness, that are here.

You’re Welcome Gina!

October 15, 2009 by jorel314

I was happy to discover a comment left by a recent patient of mine.

Gina was referred by a friend, and I helped her retrieve a lost file. It was great meeting her and seeing her artwork. She is very talented, and I hope to see her work online one of these days when she has time to make a website.

Here’s what Gina had to say…

i seriously cannot thank you enough for finding my file — 8 weeks worth of notes that would be really hard to get back — almost 70 pages!!
the computer guys at school couldn’t figure it out and told me it’d cost upwards of a grand to locate my file. then joe told me you may be able to help, but i already gave up.
then you came to berkeley, gave me all this software and found my file. you are amazing, but most of all i was really touched by your kindness and attitude towards life. i hope the world is populated with more jorel’s.

Polyphasic Map

August 23, 2009 by jorel314

Wouldn’t it be great to locate polyphasic sleepers near you? Now you can with the handy map at the following link.

http://trypolyphasic.com/map

I came across this wonderful tool from a post by Nicky Hajal at the Polyphasic Google Group.

http://groups.google.com/group/polyphasic/browse_thread/thread/777506bf09d53303?hl=en

Send Nicky some love along with any suggestions or bugs.

I’d like to see more people from the Bay Area on the polyphasic map. Currently, there’s just me and Oki O.
