A comment on Alternate Sleep Cycles.

Everything I hear about these sleeping patterns is anecdotal. As far as I'm aware there haven't been any serious studies done of people on these sleeping patterns, and most especially on the health effects (if any) it causes.

I agree, these so called "models" in the article are based on anecdotal evidence. However, I know that there are a number of sleep studies/experiments out there... From what I've read, only 8-hour or nap in the afternoon sleep patterns were scientifically proven to be adequate.
