Mass Casualty Incident

Hello!

Were you the one who tagged this article with a worldwide view tag? If so, I'd appreciate it if you left a note on the talk page about why you tagged it, and how you would improve it as opposed to just tagging it. Thanks! Frmatt (talk) 05:09, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Nope, 'twasn't I. That tag is on the Talk page, and I've never contributed to that page. - Hordaland (talk) 06:33, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

My apologies, next time I'll check the history for the TALK page instead of the actual page...I'll get the hang of this eventually! Frmatt (talk) 08:38, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Edits to lark and night owl articles

Thank you for the helpful informative information you put in the articles on Night owl (person) and Lark (person). I was wondering, since you have a picture of an owl on your user page, does that mean that you are a night owl? Keraunos (talk) 09:27, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

I am a Norwegian-American/Scottish-American. My Norwegian ancestors came to the United States from Drammen, Norway in 1869. Keraunos (talk) 09:27, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Where in Norway do you live? Keraunos (talk) 09:29, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Have you done any studies investigating the drug modafinil? What is your opinion about it? Keraunos (talk) 09:32, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for replying to my inquiries. I am definitely an extreme night owl. If my time is free, I routinely stay up until 4AM or 5AM (often editing Wikipedia while doing so). Keraunos (talk) 14:15, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Sleep and activity

Interesting article Sedentary Behavior Associated with Delayed Sleep Onset in Kids

The more sedentary that children are during the day, the longer it takes them to fall asleep at night, according to a population-based study in Archives of Disease in Childhood.

More than 500 7-year-olds in New Zealand wore an actigraph around their waist for 24 hours to measure physical activity during the day and sleep behaviors at night. Overall, the more activity children got, the faster they fell asleep. And for each hour spent in sedentary activity during the day, it took 3 minutes longer to fall asleep at night.

ADHD

Lordy, one needs a secretary to keep up:

• 12-14 July: Hordaland discussed 6-month review by ArbCom on user talk:Carcharoth

What? I don't read/write in english. 97.96.160.247 (talk) 19:50, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Just stop vandalizing. Your edit was silly, but it was in English. - Hordaland (talk) 19:57, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
