Sleep On It

.
From the June Reader's Digest:

The idea that you can learn while asleep lives at [certain unnamed] websites.

(I know law students - if the links were here . . . )

Not so, says Harvard sleep researcher Robert Stickgold : The only time listening to tapes at night will help you is if they wake you up." But, he says, there's evidence that if you learn something today and sleep eight hours tonight, you'll retain it better tomorrow -- and beyond.

That's a wake-up call.
