Han Fastolfe parenting methods
(at least according to his estranged daughter) come to life in the here and now :)

Questions arise as scientists use offspring for research

(snip)
At a birthing class, Sinha, a neuroscience professor at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, stunned everyone, including his wife, by saying he was excited about the baby's birth "because I really want to study him and do experiments with him." He did, too, strapping a camera on baby Darius's head, recording what he looked at.

1. My wife and I have been using our kids in experiments for five years so far
The basic gist of the experiments is this: how long can two reasonably sane and intelligent adults continue to function on a minimum of sleep?

I'll be sure to post my findings when the experiment reaches its conclusion.

2. Strap on a camera?
Oh! That's why my plan to bolt one in place was rejected.

Still, maybe I can get the funding I need to tag and radio collar my neighbors. In the interests of science of course, the world is waiting to find out what the heck it is they are doing up there. Humans cant walk that loud, must be a hybrid of some kind.
