Polyphasic Sleep

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyphasic_sleep

Often it feals as if there is not nearly enough time in the day to do everything you need to do as well as get a good night sleep. This is why I think Polyphasic sleeping is an interesting life style. Say you sleep 8 hours in a night, only about 2 hours of that sleep is spent in the REM stage. The REM stage of sleep is what makes you feal rested. So some people choose to skip through all that wasted time spent sleeping, and just go after the REM. However it puts you on such a weird schedule. What you have to do is take 30 minute naps equally spread out through the day. 4 or 6 naps is the most common. These however means that you only have to sleep 2 or 3 hours a day.
One thing about Polyphasic sleeping is it is hellish to adapt to your new schedule. This is because your body wont immediately adjust to it, it may take up to two weeks. So during those 2 weeks it is  like your not getting any sleep at all. You'll just end up walking around like a zombie. I mean you wont be able to keep your focus on anything.
Polyphasic sleeping is a pretty interesting concept to me, just to think about all of the extra time in the day you'll have. But how good is that time? None of you buddy's are gonna want to hang out with you when you call them at 3 in the morning. So I think you would probably end up haveing alot of alone time. It would be like haveing two lives, one with people and one without. I think if you ever did this you would have to get alot of hobbies; doing puzzles, magic tricks, darts, or whatever random things you would want to get extremely good at during you night time hours spent alone.
Another thought about this that I am haveing is you would need an extremely flexible schedule to do this. If you work a job or go to school, how can you work it out to take a 30 minute nap every 6 hours.
It's a cool concept though.
