[22:34.71]Most Americans admit they suffer from sleep problems
[22:38.21]and when they go to sleep,
[22:39.63]many sleep alone even if they are married.
[22:43.02]These are the key findings
[22:44.77]in the National Sleep Foundation's 2001
[22:47.40]“Sleep in America poll,
[22:49.37]which looks at the relationship

[23:26.17]they don't want to give up any more sleep

[23:30.54]And they would sleep more
[23:31.86]if they were convinced
[23:32.58]it would contribute to their quality of life.
[23:35.20]The bad news is
