I avoided the sleeping the night before problem by taking the missus with
me. I find after rolling around in the sack - sleep comes easily enough. ;)
Oh and the 2 double JD's at the bar before dinner didn't hurt either.
As for the caffeine - I abstained from it completely for about 2-3 weeks.
On the morning of the lab I had a couple of espressos at the hotel and I was
wired all day long.
Cheers,
Con.

I give respect to anyone that can sleep the night before an attempt. No
matter
what I tried, I always woke up about 4:30 and couldn't get back to sleep.
