In recent news, Microsoft claims their blue screen of death actually increases user productivity.

Also in recent news, accidents go up because drivers are blinded by blue light which is the color that reduces night vision the fastest.

So... if you need some help staying up, http://wakeup.appjet.net/

"Nearly 30% of all fatal accidents involving large trucks in the US happen during the hours of darkness"

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't we spend less than 30% of the day in darkness?

(Yes, I know that the time spent on the road trucking is probably less than 30% in darkness. This just felt like a sampling bias. Like: http://www.insurance.com/quotes/article.aspx/Car_Accidents_H...)

So the secret to alertness is to mash the reset button on your biological clock three or four times a day?

I'm imagining a future headline: "Dateline: 2027 -- scientists discover that overuse of blue light causes depression, hallucinations, amnesia, homicidal tendencies."

Somehow I can't see truck drivers lining up to take "light showers". My best friend is a truck driver - you have enough trouble convincing him to take real showers.
