I am sleeping on the same schedule that Bucky used for 2 years and called the dymaxion sleep. It involves sleeping for 30 minutes every 6 hours for a total of 2 hours sleep a day.
Members here may be interested in my blog. I am blogging my experience with this sleep pattern at:

I didn't know Bucky only did this for a few years. I thought it was a much longer time. I just assumed.
Thanks Paul. I'll definitely follow along on your progress/experiment.
