Something funny happens when I read books on lucid dreaming:
I have more lucid dreams.
It wasn’t but a day or two into reading Robert Waggoners new book, Lucid Dreaming: Gateway to the Inner Self

The Panel Discussion is a new feature I would like to do every month.
The idea is to throw out an interesting question to a group of people (some of the most interesting and intelligent people I know) and post the response for everyone to see.
