I was thinking if we could directly tap and pump fresh cerebrospinal fluid and eliminate sleep

It seems neat in theory but I imagine the brain having to operate an additional 8 hours a day might actually accelerate mental decline faster as we age given you would be using it 1/3 more but it is an interesting concept.

  • Or you just have a slow continuous flow, where the pumping is controlled by the heartbeat - meaning that whatever is pumping the BrainWash 9000(TM) is triggered by the impulses to the heart - however there is some monitoring system which also can slow or increase B9 as needed.
