Have you tried/heard of the SleepTracker watch? Someone made a blog recording their experience with polyphasic (both Uberman and Dymaxion, I believe) sleep adaptation, and it was interesting to know that it might make sleep-time-deprived days easier, given that the watch monitors sleep stages and wakes you up at accordingly good/easy times.
By the way, I found your blog after hearing (and getting excited) about Peter Theil's new Foundation for "20 people under age 20", then finding our mutual interests in sleep, health care and Patri's seasteading, AND moving to the Bay Area recently (coincidence?).
I still need to read through the proliferating comments in your health care post...
