    1. Thanks! I hope you like 'em!
    2. I will check it out for sure!
    3. Well, to me the books turned out just fine. Of course, after school I got myself caught up in the real world of business (gotta eat) and the books didn't show up for 20 yrs, and then I had to self-publish 'cause no one likes dream novels. They are for sale now, though, and selling ever so slowly. Curious? Search "Peter Luber" on amazon.com.
    4. Yeah, i know quite a few people who have made that decision haha and I can definitely see the allure
      Oh serious!? nice; how did the books turn out?
    5. My degree? Of all things my degree was in English, with minors in philosophy and history. Went in as a science major, but I got all mystical somewhere along the way and decided I was going to write books about -- wait for it -- dreaming!
    6. Thanks for the wishes!
      haha I wish they would have those. If i get anywhere in that field, I will definitely have a room dedicated to it.

      Harvard has a division of sleep med, really tempting
      I might apply to a sleep lab there. They participant pay is, *cough*, generous

      Mind if I ask you what your degree was in?

      Also wanted to say that it's a delight to hear that someone wants to get into sleep medicine. When I went to school, mention of a field like that would have drawn giggles from academics. It may be a selfish wish on my part, but I do hope you do well!
    8. Neurosisfish:

      Sorry for the delay - long week!

      Much of my experience was self-directed, though, aside from once moderating a lucidity forum and now skimming DV, I do not use the internet. I have done some "directed" work thru psychology and philosophy courses in college, and through LaBerge's Lucidity Institute, back when he still cared. But I suppose to answer your question: no, no formal academic dream work here. Indeed, I spent a decade of my work studiously ignoring academic input, for fear it would negatively influence my search for Self. Sorry!

      I've always considered trying a sleep lab, but I'm such an incredibly light sleeper, I doubt it would go well for me. I did always want to try out a sensory-deprivation tank, though! I feel any sleep doctor should have one of those in his office.

      Best of Dreams,
      Sageous
    9. Hey Sageous
      You mentioned you had 30 years of dream and sleep research experience. I was wondering if this was 30 years of self directed research based on experience and the internet or was this 30 years of academic reseach in a sleep lab. I was only wondering because I might be interested in sleep medicine myself.

      Cheers!
