I'm too lazy right now to read this entire article, but I have a gut feeling this article is based on Freud's Interpretations of Dreams. If that is the case, this article is wrong. Modern psychology has proven Freud is wrong and anyone who reverts back to his theories are using backward thinking.

really neat artical about dreaming ".....Later came the idea that dreams are the cognitive echoes of our efforts to work out conflicting emotions. More recently, dreams have been viewed as mere "epiphenomena"--excrescences of the brain with no function at all, the mind's attempt to make sense of random neural firing while the body restores itself during sleep. As Harvard sleep researcher Allan Hobson puts it, dreams are "the noise the brain makes while it's doing its homework."

Psychology Today article on dreaming,an REM/dream experiment on rats...and how dreams can be rehearsal for real life events.

**Make sure to go on and read the rest of the article! (multiple pages)**

"Dreaming is so basic to human existence, it's astonishing we don't understand it better. It consumes years of our lives, and no other single activity exerts such a powerful pull on our imaginations."

I have the sneaking suspicion that whoever wrote this knows next to nothing about dreaming besides what they were told for the article.

Not a very empirical hypothesis, but an interesting one anyway

interesting article. Even more interesting is the fact that reading this has made me sleepy. I think I'm going to bed now.
