However, while I smoked, I found that I could trick my body into thinking it was summer time (daylight savings time and early sunrise) by turning on a lamp (with an electric timer) about an hour before my scheduled time to get up. You might give this a try. terry mason = entropy@fluke Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
