"Working More, Sleeping Less" Part 2

This is a Follow-up post to "Working More, Sleeping Less"

Sociologists at the University of Maryland are reporting, that their research shows, that most Americans are in fact getting the recommended average of 8 hours of sleep a night.

The study, Not So Deprived: Sleep in America, 1965-2005, does state that Americans who get fewer than the recommended number of hours have heavy work schedules to blame. But, it also concludes that most Americans, in spite of their work schedules, still average the recommended number of 8 hours of sleep a night.
