brainpanhandler, have you ever thought of using a voice activated recorder to record what you say when you sleep?

Me too. One told me I often said "I'm not a machine."
Why do we need to work at the same time and in identical patterns as the industrial times, when today's innovation society does not demand this from us? Especially now, when we discover that a fourth of our entire population does not even fit to this old-fashioned day rhythm?
Why do we all have to be stuck on the road to work every morning and hurry back from there to pick up the kids before the day-care centre closes, when actually this could be different?
B-Society's mission is to change the structures, on the labour market and in society at large, so B-people can finally fit in. We are going to reckon with the 8-4 society and its lacking respect for B-persons' day rhythms.
The 10 commandments of B-society
1. The daily rhythm of each individual is genetically conditioned by heredity. Society needs to be structured to support a diversity of daily rhythms.
2. We are calling for an uprising against the tyranny of early rising, and for a better world where a diversity of daily rhythms is acknowledged and respected, giving us the opportunity for a better quality of life, more productive working time and major socioeconomic gains once we no longer take up the same space on the same roads at the same time.
3. We are working for equality between early birds and night owls.
4. We are working for a more flexible labour market. Each individual's daily rhythm should, as far as possible, govern that person's working life.
5. We are working for the introduction of collective agreements for early birds and night owls at negotiations for labour market agreements.
6. We are working for the establishment of day nurseries, kindergartens, primary and secondary schools as well as universities that open between 10 a.m. and 8 p.m, at least.
7. We are working for more research into daily rhythms.
8. We grant ”B-certification” on http://www.b-productive.dk/eng to businesses, who allow employees to work according to their own daily rhythm, work rhythm and life rhythm.
9. We are working globally for a better world that supports a diversity of individual daily rhythms, working rhythms and life rhythms.
10. Imagine how differently society would have turned out if the creators of the world had been night owls!
