Basically, they found a specific gene mutation that allows at least 2 women to sleep only about 6 hours per night, without repurcussion. They have also transfered that genetic mutation to rats and fruit flies.

What do you think about this. Would you like to have this gene? Do you have this gene? Would it be lonely to be awake all the time? Why do they mention insomnia in the article?
