This reminds me of the studies not too long about how some very small percentage of the population actually CAN multitask well. Then a very large percentage of the population used that as "evidence" to justify their existing habits. I see it here already.

I have what I call insomnia but what I experience parallels the article. I don't know that I am a short-sleeper but I sleep 2-4 a night and if I get 4 I seem to be fine. It is hard for me to sleep. That being said, I suck at multitasking so if and article comes up about multitasking it does not raise my interest.
