Anyone here with any medical training?
I have a perplexing question.
I have read, many times, that the dream function of our bodies is essential. I've also read, again many times, that during active dreaming (REM sleep), the body produces some kind of chemical inhibitor that acts as a sort of paralyzing agent, to keep us from acting out our dreams.
My question, that being the case, is "How, then, do you explain sleepwalking?!"

Does anyone know why refrigerator shelves are not solid?
Does anyone know why refrigerator shelves are not solid?I wonder when something too thin falls off through the crack in the self. They bring the shelf out, stop, and then put a bit of a "fence" sticking out from it. This leaves a space and things slip through if they are too thin.
