Insomnia will do no one no good. Just because your awake doesn't mean your alert.

its been shown that a person with a good case of insomnia can stay active and alert for up to three days. worst case cenario, up to five. mainly because the body tends to become used to the long stretches without sleep. so it is quite possible to be up for a long period of time and still be alert. when i worked the plastics plant here in my home town, i could work a double and sometimes a triple shift and be very alert the following day. the human body is by far the most adaptive and strongest machine that god put on this green earth. never underestimate the human body along with the human will.

like all things. insomnia has its good points and bad. one of the good points is the ability to stay up long stretches. the bad point is when you crash, not even a jet crashing in your living room will come close to waking you. thats why it is best to team up with a group. so even if one of you has insomnia, others can be awake while the majority sleep. with this type of shift watch. even the person with insomnia can even get some sleep at some point in time. hell, even the guy with narcolepsy can sleep tight with knowledge that their komradz will have their backs.

it still won't hurt to travel in a group though. because others can watch your back while you get the nap. all it will take is one quiet zombie to make things a bad day.

if any of you have ever seen the movie "the machinist" what was forefront in my thoughts on this were hallucinations.i myself,as friends here know,can stay awake for 24 hours at a time,(Halo days :) ..),but then i need mega hours sleep.i looked it up in wiki and here's what they had to say...
Randy Gardner holds the scientifically documented record for the longest period of time a human being has intentionally gone without sleep not using stimulants of any kind. In 1964—as a 17-year-old high school student in San Diego, California—Gardner stayed awake for 264 hours (eleven days), breaking the previous record of 260 hours held by Tom Rounds of Honolulu.[1]
Gardner's record attempt was attended by Stanford sleep researcher Dr. William C. Dement. Gardner's health was monitored by Lt. Cmdr. John J. Ross. Accounts of Gardner's sleep-deprivation experience and medical response became widely known among the sleep research community.[2][3][4][5]
Health effects...
It is often claimed that Gardner's experiment demonstrated that extreme sleep deprivation has little effect, other than the mood changes associated with tiredness (mood swings, short temper, loss of concentration).[6] This is primarily due to a report by researcher William Dement, who stated that on the tenth day of the experiment, Gardner had been, among other things, able to beat Dement at pinball.
However, Lt. Cmdr. John J. Ross, who monitored his health, reported serious cognitive and behavioral changes. These included moodiness, problems with concentration and short term memory, paranoia, and hallucinations. On the fourth day he had a delusion that he was Paul Lowe winning the Rose Bowl, and that a street sign was a person. On the eleventh day, when he was asked to subtract seven repeatedly, starting with 100, he stopped at 65. When asked why he had stopped, he replied that he had forgotten what he was doing.[1]
On his final day, Gardner presided over a press conference where he spoke without slurring or stumbling his words and in general appeared to be in excellent health. "I wanted to prove that bad things didn't happen if you went without sleep," said Gardner. "I thought, 'I can break that (Peter Tripp's 1959) record and I don't think it would be a negative experience.'"[6][7]
Subsequent record information...
According to news reports, Gardner's record has been broken a number of times. Gardner's case still stands out, however, because it is so extensively documented. It is difficult to determine the accuracy of a sleep deprivation period unless the participant is carefully observed to detect short microsleeps, which the participant might not even notice. Also, records for voluntary sleep deprivation are no longer kept by Guinness World Records for fear that participants will suffer ill effects.[11]

Been Awhile, BUt I'm still Alive
Greetings Everyone, Well it's been awhile. As things go, life carries us all in different directions from time to time but you always find your way home sooner or later. Well, life ain't all fun and games, but right now, things are going good. I have restarted my writing on my book again, and as I learn more about about some of the ROle-playing games I have gotten into, I am seriously thinking about rying to create an actual Zombie Survival Role-playing game. But have not set any time…
