Well I agree that's not the way to use the info.

But when I remember a lucid dream, I don't have to stop and think about some number chart, I already know if I only dreamed ABOUT lucidity, or if I was only dimly aware, or if I had a high level of lucidity.

I see nothing wrong with trying to chart out the varying levels... it's merely the scientific method in action. If people didn't take it upon themselves to study and try to categorize things, Laberge would never have written his book. I see this as more somebody trying to create a database from which to further studies, not as a way to complicate keeping a DJ.

And no, I would hate to see people posting in here always having to say what level lucid they had by number... THAT would suck.

But I do agree with the last poster that it should not be used the way he said.
