Smart alarm clock
Posted By: Just a random guy in in a hospital, out of a long coma Apr 14, 2005	Now this actually seems like a good idea... A clock that is supposed to wake you at the lightest point in your sleep cycles, keeping you from groggy wake-ups. You program it with the latest time that you want to wake up and it wakes you up at the lightest point in your sleep cycle closest to, but not exceeding that time by measuring your sleep cycles.

Winona in USA Member	Posted: Thu Apr 14, 2005 \| 05:25 AM I'd still get annoyed with it not waking me up at the latest possible time. I am not a good morning person.

Boo in The Land of the Haggii... Member	Posted: Thu Apr 14, 2005 \| 05:51 AM Ah, it may be because there's a question mark in the URL. This?

Alex in San Diego Member	Posted: Thu Apr 14, 2005 \| 06:39 AM You have to know a small bit of html to post images in comments: img src="the url" and enclose this in brackets. and close the tag.
Boo in The Land of the Haggii... Member	Posted: Thu Apr 14, 2005 \| 06:44 AM wheeeeeeeezzooooooooooooom! That's the sound of that flying over my head.
Winona in USA Member	Posted: Thu Apr 14, 2005 \| 06:48 AM go like this: ++ take off the + signs, substiture the info the url and it should work.
Winona in USA Member	Posted: Thu Apr 14, 2005 \| 06:48 AM ARGH! Ok so I'm not so smart.
Winona in USA Member	Posted: Thu Apr 14, 2005 \| 06:51 AM email me at and I'll explain it. (don't worry it's just a junk mail account)
Alex in San Diego Member	Posted: Thu Apr 14, 2005 \| 06:53 AM Okay. It has to look like this: <img src="http://inserturlhere"> This assumes that the image is on another server somewhere. You can't upload images into comments so that they'll be saved on my server.
Winona in USA Member	Posted: Thu Apr 14, 2005 \| 06:57 AM OK, there you go, I even forgot the </img>. I'm really not that smart, lol. Can you believe I used to work for a website?

Boo in The Land of the Haggii... Member	Posted: Thu Apr 14, 2005 \| 07:04 AM Yay!
Alex in San Diego Member	Posted: Thu Apr 14, 2005 \| 07:04 AM NO! I was wrong. You don't close the img tag. What was I thinking? (Winona, you have to write the brackets with ascii code, otherwise the browser is going to read them as html)
