Early Birds vs. Night Owls (May/June 2013)
This month's "A Tale of Two Sleeps" delves into the history of snoozing, revealing that humans used to have very different sleeping habits than we do today. Thomas Edison certainly had his own ideas about how modern people should nap. How about you: Are you an early bird or a night owl? Do you dream of a world where people sleep twice every night?

I'm usually up with the sun, but I'm a typical kid and enjoy staying up very late as well. But if I had to choose, definitely early bird.

i get up verry early ( 6:20) to go to school evry day so on wekends i tend to stay up till midnight ( don't worry i'm old enough) but if we have to go on a trip or something i ama usualy the first one up because i went to bet early. if i was being threatened by a troll form Astralia i would say that i should get up in the morning (pasific time) and go to bet early ( pasific time)

I wake up earlier; 5:30 AM
But I don't even fall asleep until about 11:05 PM
Man I'm sleep-deprived
[With a little tweaking, this would make a nice haiku. --Editors]

I am kind of in the middle; not an early bird but not a night owl.

I,m an early bird, and I wake up between 5:30 and 6:00. I stay in my room for 1 and a half hours before getting up!

I usually get up at around 4:40 AM but I can't stay up past 10:00 PM with out falling asleep so I'm definitely a Early Bird.

I am kinda both. I like to stay up late, but I wake up early every morning.

I get up early and go to sleep late.

I stay up as late as I can on most nights, but when I get the chance (on weekends) I sleep in until eight. That may not be very late for some people, though! :)

Early bird. But I'd be happiest if people didn't need to sleep so we could read all night. :)

Hahaha.. I love how there is such a disproportionate percentage of readers being early-birds (just shows what kind of readers Muse has :P). Definitely not the party all night kind of crowd ;) but then what would you expect out of people who read a children's science magazine?!
