• I wholeheartedly agree with your post. My father had recommended the book you cite a couple months ago. I picked it up in our library a few weeks ago and am now close to finishing it; it's my bedtime reading. An excellent read backed up by extensive research. Many night owls who claim to only need 5 to 6 hrs sleep are probably fooling themselves; it may come back to bit them years down the road. I will also focus on more consistently getting in my 8 hrs in the sack going forward.

• I think gift cards are great. However, given the overwhelming and growing plastic pollution in our environment, I recommend giving virtual cards, or re-usable/re-loadable cards whenever possible. There may also be bio-degradable cards out there...I've not looked into this yet. Paper-based gift certificates is another option. Thanks for your timely post, it made me think more closely about the impacts of these cards as I'm giving a couple to family myself.
