Daylight Savings Time is set to return again – along with the annual sleep disruptions that most of us experience following the changing of the clocks.

A recent Dear Abby column printed a letter from “Seeking Slumber in Santa Barbara” who complained about one spouse’s snoring keeping the other spouse from a good night’s sleep.
