Yeah when we sleep our brain just cycles in to a differant gear..never actually stops, from looking at EEGs of sleeping patients I have seen slowing but never a cessation of electrical activity, never,, thats death. ElectroCerebralSilence.
We dont need sleep per se' but we do need Delta waves for some reason..which are large electrical synchronizations resulting in large amplitude slow brain waves..
