It's vitamin B-12, and it makes you dream in very intense colors. Just take a 
few tem minutes or so before you go to sleep.  If you want to remember your
dreams, just get into the habit of writing what you remember down as soon as you
wake up, after about 2 weeks, you'll find yourself remembering most of your 
dreams and sometimes more than one a night.

Hardware Note:  A few years ago Omni has an article about lucid dreaming, and
mentioned a hardware device for invoking lucid dreams.  It recognized when you
went into r.e.m. state & gave you four very weak shocks on the wrist (to mean:
this is a dream).  Has anybody heard anything about these or other devices?
