Wow, interesting. I knew about Pavlina only through his writings on polyphasic sleep. His stance on monogamy seems to be really interesting though (and weird for me)[1].

I remember him writing that one reason for quitting polyphasic sleep was that he didn't spend much time in bed with his wife.

It's interesting to note that Facebook seems to me to be a vehicle that can be easily abused to bypass monogamy.

Maybe the pieces fit in the end.

The other reason, which he probably didn't admit to himself and certainly didn't admit to the world, is that he was probably soul-crushingly tired all the time. See: http://www.supermemo.com/articles/polyphasic.htm
