Whew!  I think we've finally gotten to a point in this thread where we
can reasonably call it a night!  I just want to point you towards a
paper that relates to the above.  It was written by Marty Seligman and
(Jean ?) Yager around 1986.  If that's not enough information for you
to track it down, I'll dig it up again myself.  In any case, Seligman
and Yager surveyed a bunch of undergraduates here at Penn about the
content of their dreams.  I don't want to endorse the views S and Y
expressed in the paper, but I do think you should track it down if you
have the interest.  From what I recall (it's been a few years), they
did say some things similar to what you state in the paragraph above.
