I sampled the meat of the Personal Genius paraliminal--the paraliminal session begginning with "your personal genius, now coming through".

It's 3 min 20 sec long, so, with 8 hours sleep, that would be... 144 listenings per night. :-) *broad grin*

I also piped in a tone and some waves from the Brainwave Generator shareware program. I thought a 3hz binaural beat would keep me alseep even with all the talking.

Effects noticed after one day?
Sure I could say I've been in flow all day--and I have. But an actual quantitative measure: I work in the library, I normally take 60 minutes to organize a full cart. Tonight, I cut that time in half to 30min/cart by spontaneously using a new strategy of sorting...without even trying to. The strategy just came to me. I've been working there a few weeks and now I'm sorting much faster than people who have worked there for over a year!

Now I have three books to read and a 10 page paper due in less than 48 hours... Paul Scheele, do your stuff!!!! :-)
