Doctor: Um, yeah. I don’t normally do this, but I’m going to give you serious drugs up front and then figure out what’s going on later. Take this after you get home. Also, clear your calendar for the next few days.

I can’t say how active this philosophical area is these days, but you’re correct in that it’s a part of “essential philosophical questions that man has been asking for centuries with no real answer.” I say, drink deep from this well and master the domain. Maybe then sleep will come easier.
