Ever since I was very young, my dad has told me about how people have some advantage in sleeping in a North-South direction as opposed to an east-west direction. Supposedly, in Indian tradition, it's good for your health or something like that if you were to sleep as such.

Of course it's good for your health to sleep in a north-south direction. If you wake up every morning facing east or go to sleep facing west, you're bound to go blind, at least if you don't have shades on your windows. 68.189.148.241 22:46, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Seriously..  ? A big long animal wouldn't position itself so that the sun warms his body nicely in the morning or evening.. no... It's magnetic because they like the magic voodoo vibes the gypsies bestow on any creature who aligns themselves properly. Scientists determined that sunlight did not provide a better explination? Are these scientists real or magic? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.243.129.181 (talk) 20:37, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
