This  document is intended to  provide answers to  the most frequently
asked questions on  alt.dreams and  alt.dreams.lucid.  **It does   not
claim  to be   authoritative.**   Some  answers   are   controversial.
Discussion over controversial topics about dreaming is always welcome.
Don't let  the fact that a topic  is discussed in  this FAQ discourage
you from posting about it  at all - the purpose  of the FAQ is just to
cut down on easily-answered questions that occur often.

This  document was compiled by  Olaf Titz <olaf@bigred.ka.sub.org>, to
whom questions,  error  corrections, suggestions  for improvements etc
about this documents should be directed. Most answers are summaries of
statements posted on alt.dreams by various people.

This document is now  split into  four parts  for convenience  and for
clear distinction of the various sources. Part one and two are general
information written into prose by me with  some help from others. Part
three is the original older Lucid Dreaming FAQ  by Lynne Levitan (soon
to be replaced by  a complete rewrite). Part  four is mostly collected
quoted input from  a large number of contributors.  Many thanks to all
who have helped to compile these thoughts.

The  particular   order  of    sections   is   a result   of   several
reorganizations and renumberings and as such somewhat chaotic. I don't
claim  any  special meaning  in this  order   and in the  cuts between
sections. The whole document is now in "digest" format.

This is  posted biweekly on alt.dreams, alt.dreams.lucid, alt.answers,
news.answers and is available from the archives via FTP at
