      I never have had violent dreams--but surely I am still mad? yes, no? Maybe a vote is called for.

      The article is misleading. The study was done on patients with RBD, which causes you to act out your dreams due to a lack of sleep paralysis. Violent dreams, on their own, are not a sign of an impending brain disorder. Apparently, the writer doesn't understand the distinction.
