I think Buckminster Fuller should be an honorable mention of sorts. He invented a form of napping, as he called it, "Dymaxion Sleep." It consisted of him taking short napping intervals. No solid period of sleep longer than 45 minutes, if I'm accurate.

I do power naps : 5 to 10 minutes max napping. Just loose conciousness and wake up fresh for a good afternoon work!
I wake up at 2:30am too... and read Neatorama

The White House usher during the Harding years (and beyond) was named Ike Hoover not Hood. Just for accuracy's sake.

That Dali thing is really interesting. So we have a metal pan and spoon to thank for Un Chien Andalou.

"One of Hollywood's most prominent film producers for over 30 years, Sam Goldwyn believed in hard word."

I know Dali denied taking LSD and most other drugs. But alot of his biographys talk about his mescaline trips and the paintings based on them.
