These two guys are just babies!!!
Now I know how they can update their program so often, their young enough to not have to sleep. I remember what that was like, but it was a loooong time ago.
Hell, I have to get out bed three times a night just to take a piss. Cheers guys, and keep up the great work!

Tony,
i hear you. - only one more time to be 22 again 
I remember times I could work for 2 days and nights without sleep. If I don’t sleep ONE night now, I can’t recover next few days from the headache and deconcetration…
yes yes, we all get older. when i was in a arch competition i sometimes didn´t sleep 56 hours. no chance today. one night without sleep you can forget me the other day. and i´m 29 
i never sleep for 56 hours… normaly i sleep 8 hours.
:lol:
My record was 96 hours without sleep when I was an undergrad. I should have voulunteered myself for sleep deprivations studies. I could have paid my way through college.
I am really surprised, they are so young…
well I just did two weeks without sleep but with meditation (2*2hrs/day), without it I would be lost and dead. After such weeks I need a day to recover. I belive it would better with LCD/TFT monitors.
pixeljockey been there done that got the 600$ canadian for joining up. hehehe
thats not bad, world record is 11 days without sleep.
we have a guinness book entry here.
insomnia
As far as I have learned in the medical books, a normal 35 years old homo-sapiens can hold maximal 3/4 (in some cases 5) days without sleep. (this is almost same for all warm-blooded animals on this planet)
6 and 7 days without sleep make a human insane and he his health (or brain functionality) is forever damaged. In other words, you turn into a debil.
7-8 days without sleep kill in 99,5% all cases a normal human being. Actualy he kills himslef because the concentration of the toxic materia in his blood makes him unable to recover anymore.
there are people who has different “recycling” system in the body - so they can hold longer. They make this 0.05% who survive
Losbellos, did you need an alarm clock to come out of your “meditation”?
I imagine if one could reach the proper state, meditation is equal to or better than sleep.
Re: insomnia
no no! I am not that IGOR! :lol:
