My guess? Mornings where they have to get up early and rush off to  <br>
work are very stressful for people with CVD. Since most heart attacks  <br>
happen in the morning, people sleeping in every day because they have  <br>
nowhere to go means a lot less heart attacks. No mornings means fewer  <br>
heart attacks.<br>
