Sex vs. sleep

I understand the extropian rationale behind those who want to be freed of their sex drives, but I guess I'm just not that evolved yet....

On the other hand, as pleasurable as sleep and dreaming are, I'd love to have as many of those hours back as possible. I understand that there are approaches to reducing sleep requirements -- pharmaceutical, hypnosis, etc. -- that seem highly effective, but I'm concerned that there may be serious long-term side-effects. I'm skeptical that we completely understand sleep and dreaming. Have there ever been any good, LONG-term studies on sleep reduction techniques?
