You know what's weird (and speaks for the maturity of this board)?
Of all the talk of Provigil, I've not come across that stupid media-induced hype about its use as an anti-sleep agent.
A journalist for the Washington Post took it for 48 hours, writing an article on it while she took it. She said it turned everything "on" for her motivation wise, and how she could really "feel" it working.
Journalists are so lame. They're always looking for something novel, so when they hear about a novel drug they go crazy and think about all the implications it may have for pop culture. Not once do they ever stop to think some people actually have to use it for a legitimate purpose, and how that itself is important and note-worthy.
