NAPPING: POWERFUL, VIRTUOUS AND UNDERRATED

The napping codger is a cherished American cliché for useless old age. Now there is growing evidence that restorative naps renew energy and enthusiasm while reducing accidents and errors. If you’re already a napper, like me, you know the power of a midday half-hour siesta. If not, this short, informative piece from The New York Times on the Web may convince you to join the likes of Einstein, Napoleon, Edison, and three recent presidents, all nappers. As another true believer, Winston Churchill, claimed of forty winks: "You will be able to accomplish more. You get two days in one-—well, at least one and a half."
