More dream expert videos, new clues to informant's identity

New text:

More dream expert videos posted at http://activatingevolution.org/resources.shtml

New e-mail (thanks Joanna), with the subject "My Identity":

You aren't going to get the whole enchilada at once. I've only given you enough to point you in the right direction. Check out the new videos on the Dream Site here: http://activatingevolution.org/resources.shtml.

My identity is hidden in the doctor's names, take some, ditch some, move 'em around.

Brian knows nothing, don't listen to him.

The new videos from Dr. Wayne Grody:

• How do brain waves differ between sleep and waking life? Are there similarities?
  
  
• Why do we dream? Is it the brain's way of coping with our lives or is it just random "garbage" churned out by our brains while we sleep? Do dreams evolve?
• Can dreams be controlled? Is it theoretically possible for someone to somehow control the dreams of others?
  
  

Videos posted last Thursday:

• Introduction
  
  
• What exactly is a dream and what is the process that causes this phenomenon to happen?
  
  
• What are the basic phases of sleep and why do we experience them?
