So far so good with my experiment with nasal strips and getting better sleep. I still haven't found out if I snore still (apparently I haven't been able to keep anyone awake..) but I do think I sleep better as I wake up a bit more alert and rested. However, it's only been 2 days and it may well have been the placebo effect. I have 8 more strips so I'll find out soon enough :)

Speaking of the placebo effect, looking for a definition on the web netted me an interesting take of it at The Skeptic's Dictionary.. I think I'll go read more of this site later..
