I'm a night-owl (look at the Date: on this message) so being there
at 4am does bother me. Although, I usually try to do my work after
business hours and before midnight. On the otherhand, being there at
9am does bother me :-) Also, I don't drink coffee or smoke, etc. (i.e.
I'm not dependent on drugs to get me going).
