Why do we sleep?...

....Think of the hours that are wasted across the globe, everyday, in this activity. Does sleeping generate any wealth? Does it make a contribution to the Gross Domestic Product? Why, it doesn't even have a social advantage! Only the manufacturers of beds and pillows can possibly profit from it. Surely, it ought to be banned. 



Well, no, not really, but I hope you take my point. Not everything in life has to be practical - or pay for itself.



Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself.  (John Dewey)
