How To Convince Lucid Dreaming Nonbelievers

If they say it is not possible, ask them why that is the one thing you can't believe you are doing in a dream.

I think people are so conditioned to believe in two ways of dreaming. Regular, non lucid dreams and day dreams> That is where they would expect to play hockey and such.
They can't conceive the concept of the two working together.

I guess they would consider that a ...pipe dream. :wink:
