In this post http://www.dreamviews.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=14885 FMprime said to write "are you dreaming?" down your index finger.
I tried this method today.
I've never been good with remembering to do checks, but this method works.
I did more reality checks in this one day than I have in probably a week.
So to any newbs out there (like myself) give this a try.
Much thanks to FMprime
