\From what I've read, studies on college folk, sleep depravatino can
actually aide you in small amounts.  If you don't "recharge" your
batteries, then your screwed.  I generally recharge saturday or sinday
and sleep about 3-5 hrs during the week.  The trick is to wake up
inbetwween REM stages.  If you wake up in the middle it's hard to shake
the grogginess for several hours.

FWIW
