[Nfb-krafters-korner] OT dreams

[Kendra Schaber]

I have not had dreams of the teaching kind. I had a math teacher who told me 
about one that I thought was interesting. My math teacher at the time had a 
hard time with solving a math problem of the Calculus kind. The problem 
turned up in his dream and he solved it in his dream. He shortly woke up 
afterwords, solved the problem and then went back to sleep.
