Thanks for your input BeeK, CFT .

The LD comes along now and then. I posted fairly recently a case where realized I was in a dream, stood on the edge of a tall building and fell forward knowing that I would not hit the ground. I had a nice flight before I settled on the beach. But then I encountered some sort of limitation - I wasn't able to fly against the wind to rejoin my friends. I tried but it was just too much effort.

Some time ago, posted somewhere here, I practiced the run and jump technique and doing a flip in order to gain altitude. Over the years I've experienced many lucid dreams triggered usually by something bizarre occurring that causes me to question Reality - a morphing cat, sailing a sail boat on dry land, the time I refused to jump from a ledge because I couldn't convince myself for sure that I was dreaming.

Lucidity is a hard thing to pin down. My most recent post to my dream journal related a dream in which I had detailed recall (walking across campus in my underwear) but it wasn't lucid. There's a difference between being aware you're dreaming and just dreaming. One thing that bothers me is I have never passed through a wall, that possibility has never occurred to me. Is that to say I've never been lucid? I think this is why the RTZ exit appeals to me.

For a brief moment I experienced both the presence of my sleeping body and sitting on the couch smoking my pipe in another body. Also, I experience false awakenings fairly regularly and I can't help but wonder if it would be possible to translate one of those into a RTZ exit.
