For those who really need to get up, I propose an adrenalin dart based alarm clock, which fires a small make-you-very-alert dart into you (or your sleeping partner) ensuring that you immediately spring in to action.-- neilp, Dec 16 2005 Ditto [Pa've], seriously. Ok +-- Zuzu, Dec 16 2005 Alarm goes off. Adrenalin kicks in. Heart conks out. Passes out again.-- DrCurry, Dec 16 2005 zzzzzzzz AAAAA! MY EYE!-- bungston, Dec 16 2005 [normzone] grabs "snooze" dart, stabs self, mumbles "just five more minutes", and rolls over.-- normzone, Dec 16 2005 [bungston] - perhaps this is an opportunity to sell patented BungCo hardened eye masks, specifically to encourage sound sleep, and dart-eye juxtaposition incidents.-- neilp, Dec 16 2005 Incidence of heart attack is high just after awaking. This system might not help.-- bristolz, Dec 16 2005 random, halfbakery
