Sign me up. I could use the rest when finals are over.

[Chief Pride]

they would have to pay me ALOT of money to even CONSIDER doing that

[Nawaid Ladak]

Thats like 30 minutes from my house. I would apply but I can't even sit still for 10 seconds much les 90 days.

I'm guessing a little bit of both.

[Elgin Clock]

Oh wow... I'm sure some people who know me sort of well would sign me up for this one.
After all, I have slept through a major holiday before, & can easily spend a weekend just lounging around in bed. :yikes:

This test would be pretty interesting though, that's for sure.

I'm going to bring up a theory here for a moment, & hypothesize that this study may lead to eventual sleep while traveling in space like is seen in a lot of Sci-Fi movies.

Traveling in hyperspace during extended periods of time for instance, & being in a sleep like state for 90 days... (or 3 months straight).

How far can we go in space in a 3 month period exactly?? :cool:

yeah, little bit of both...it took like 5 mins to apply so I'm more interested to see if they would even contact me.

I know for a lot of psychology studies they pay you even if you quit mid-way through for ethical reasons. I wonder if this is the same way.

[Molten]

I wonder how much this pays period. I couldn't find a dollar amount anywhere.

[JulieB]

i hear from a friend who it on the radio $15,000 is what the person would get pay but who knows
i but i couldnt sit still if my life depend on it heck i couldnt sit still for graduation and it was only 2 hours.
