most of the night.</FONT></DIV>

I can relate to jet-lag and believe me it is MUCH worse to lose <BR>hours
<BR>> than it is to gain them. I've found that out from personal
<BR>experience.<BR><BR>I always find it more difficult to gain hours. Going
east over the <BR>ocean, you sleep in the plane, and get up, and it's morning.
Even I, <BR>who only sleeps a couple of hours - well, I stay up all day and
the <BR>adjustmenbt is pretty well over. <BR><BR>Coming west means I am awake
for darned near 20 hours or something, <BR>and then I going to sleep when my
body thinks it is 5 am and only <BR>sleep a few hours. I don't eat at the
right times, and I and <BR>exhausted at 7 pm, and wake up far earlier than
normal for about a <BR>week. Ugh! <BR><BR>The question is, which way to most
people feel is worse? East, or
<BR>West?<BR><BR>Heather<BR></TT></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
