John: I quite agree, if you get into a situation, tossing and turning all night sleeping no more than an hour each time, that type of sleep does you very little good.

I've gone to bed with out the answer, and by morning I'll have all those answer in my head. At breakfast, my good wife will ask what I designed and built overnight. During the early 1970s over a period of 4 years I built a new free stall dariy barn complete with milking parlor and silos to house 120 cows. This whole complex was designed around the skid steer loader. There were no engineers, no designers, just two carpenter friends and myself. By the time that construction was over, My wife advised that next time I designed a building she was going on a trip until until the project was complete. You can get away with that when your young.

He will play out providing his activity doesn't due him in first.
