I wonder if the first promoters of DEILD intended something just like in my last post a little ways back (above), instead of: dream -> wake -> re-enter? If not, it is at least a happy side effect that can be turned into one of your primary LD initiation methods.

I picked up and started going through Robert Waggoner's LD: GTTIM. He talks similarly about expectation before going into some more "out there" ideas. It has been inspiring some interesting LD's for me. Also, his mention of different types of flying has got me expecting new ways that flying will work and they have.
