Sleep, anyone?

Sleep .. is a demanding mistress. When she rules the roost, it is really difficult to think of anything else. Like the Continuum Transfunctioner it's mystery is only exceeded by it's power.
While most of us have long pondered upon sleep, it's use, necessity, etecetra, have you ever given a thought to a life without sleep? As in .. a life where sleep is not necessary. Now don't dismiss it off lagech. Give it a thought. Productivity would increase the world over, but so would costs. One would never have the sick feeling of being 'sleep deprived', but nor would one enjoy the true bliss that sleep gives us. Things would be a lot different .. thats for sure.
So on to the next step. Would you rather have a life where ..

  • you don't need sleep at all; or
  • all you do is sleep
    I personally know both types of people. (Some ppl really prefer it that way .. frankly, I would'nt have thought so.)

    No sleep at all! There's so much to do... Any extra time is welcome.

    Would be kind of sad to not have weird dreams though....

    There's one marathi science fiction, and that play by Amol Palshikar about this...

    i would say since our engineering times our sleeping time has reduced considerably, whatever may be the reason...

    I don't mind not needing sleep at all, provided I have lots of similar people around.
