Great article that is popular on the NY Times today. Wish he discussed how sleep helps with problem solving. Apparently Mendeleyev's sleep helped him figure out how to organize the periodic table of elements.
Given that positive thinking and comedy promotes problem solving, maybe corporations will start having comedy hour at noon...Wouldn't that be great?!
