No idea why, but I can understand where you're coming from. I'd consider myself to be an emotional person, although in the past 5 years or so that seems to have been heightened considerably. Maybe having kids makes one more sensitive? No idea, although I would observe I'm more sensitive in the mornings.

Customer says no.

But she already agreed!

Sue, or do not sue?

Well done, I guess! Props to you for examining it in such a methodical way. The next question is can you manipulate you dream content in other ways? You examined your fears and had a nightmare, so can you mentally examine you favourite food, for example, or a sport during your meditations and see how or if that affects your dreams?

This is interesting to me because it might have been conceived with the intention that it would never come to anything. I'm suggesting the idea was probably designed as a deliberate exercise in failure.

In order to achieve success it's necessary to achieve failure along the way. Inspiration and improvement can be drawn from that failure, so deliberately designing an outlandishly impractical device is not a waste of time but a source of inspiration in an iterative process.

The model proposed here whereby a central bank administers such a scheme in an apolitical way does overcome much objection, but I just can't see it getting off the ground here in the UK at least. The right wing media would laugh it out of sight in short order by characterising it as a reward for slacking.
