I understand where you're coming from, I just think that in this particular area I wouldn't be surprised if science thinks they've got a solution that allows for the elimination of sleep, while keeping people vitally energized both physically and mentally and it receives mass appeal, for obvious reasons. Then many years later people start to realize that for some reason, all the art, the songs, the literature are slightly less amazing or that they feel like their missing something, there's some void and they can't quite place what it is. I realize that they could create ways of getting people to a dream state immediately and for only 1 hour stretches to be more time efficient, but perhaps there's more to sleeping and dreaming than biology will reveal? It's a pretty amazing thing. Just playing devils advocate here, I have no scientific basis for any of this. However, I am a BIG fan of sleeping. I do it well.
