I'm honestly suprised I've only gotten one sexually oriented response on this one! I was actually expecting a comment about blow-up dolls named Dawn.
The point of the dawn simulator is that instead of being awakened all at once out of a deep sleep by a loud alarm you are gradually awakened by a gradually brightening light. This simulates a sunrise which is supposedly the "alarm clock" we are biologically programmed to respond to. Most of them I've read about take about 30 minutes to go from no light to fully lit. I've been reading about them for years and I've always wondered if there was anything to it. |

How freaking lazy are you? Turn the lights on. Buy a clapper if thats too much trouble. I dont know you, and if I'm wrong, I'm sorry, but you sound like a real pussy. My mom would toss water on my face.

Sorry, tar, it looks like you still need to continue with your Viagra prescription. |

[anotherasshole] My ex-wifes name was Dawn, there is nothing that I can think of that would be worse than to have a simulator of that bitch. [/anotherasshole]

Wouldn't work. I'd just put the pillow over my head and go back to sleep.

Open the curtains and let some natural light in. [barney] "AAaahhh! Natural light!" [/barney] Chances are that if you don't wake up from that, you aren't getting to bed early enough. |

Can't speak to the one that lights up, but a friend of mine has one in his guest bedroom where the sound of the alarm gradually grows from faint to loud.
I'm a pretty heavy sleeper, but this thing never fails to wake me up; and at eactly the time I set it for (by that time it's been going off for 15 minutes). YMMV It's one of those units synched up with the atomic clock, and it looks like Grimace (the big purple thing from McD's). It also displays the time on the wall, if you want it to. I think he bought it at American Science and Surplus. -FMD |

It would be really handy if you happen to be moving to Japan, or live in Alaska during the winter...
Do they make a clock that gradually opens your shades/curtains in your bedroom? Maybe not. |

Most of the time I get up before the sun rises. Sleep has always been an issue for me and I usually wake up feeling like shit. About the only time I wake up feeling decent is when I wake up on my own (not from an alarm). |

I agree with you 100%. I used to be able to go to bed at 2am and still sleep 'enough', but now that I am a little older, I like to be in bed by 11pm! If I get to bed at 11, I'll be up on my own at 7. |

corwin:
That's pretty much been the same for me. If I wake up on my own I feel pretty good. If I wake up to an alarm I feel shitty and grumpy. The problem I have though, is that on a weekend, when I don't have to wake up to an alarm, I usually only sleep 20 minutes to a half an hour longer. It's the annoyance of being roused by an alarm-that seems to be the thing with me. But all my life I've really only NEEDED 4 hours of sleep and most of the time after 6 hours of sleep I wake up on my own. Almost everyone I know has stories of sleeping 8, 10 or 12 hours without being sick. I have NEVER done that , ill or otherwise. |
