      Anyone have an idea of how many people know about Lucid Drea

      In my house my son-in-law seems to know what it is by nature. I have a brother that had a girlfriend who was into dreams, my sister-in-law knew a guy that talked about dreams. I ask every doctor I talk to and only about 2 out of 7 know what it is. It seems the more technical doctors are informed such as specialist. Higher education I guess. And I think it’s when they are paying attention in psychology classes they pick up on it. Is there a way to get an idea of how small or large of a percentage we are?

      According to How Stuff Works, they estimate only 100,000 in the USA have the ability to induce a lucid dream, but I don't know how many people know about it in general. I calculated the percentage for those who can LD, and it's .03703% of people in the USA, but I have no idea what the world's percentage is.

      I had heard that five per cent of the population has had (and remembered having) at least a low-level lucid dream at some time or another, and that a fraction of a per cent were able to induce them regularly. I would very optimistically guess that one in twenty-five people knows what lucid dreams are. Most of these are philosophers, psychologists, mental doctors, or English Teachers. Seriously.
      It is important that we do not judge these few unbiased moments of our lives, but take them as they are. There is no nightmare for the lucid dreamer, nor no shadows on the mind.
