It the topic comes up it's hard not to talk about, IMO. How elaborate I make it.. Well, that depends on who's asking. If I know that the person has an interest in the more "surreal" experiences of life then I often engage in discussions about Lucid Dreaming full on. I find that most people have experienced something similar or close-to Lucid Dreaming. I tend to avoid poking at the more provocative topics such as OBE's and WILD's. It is understandable that it would be difficult wrapping your head around if you are a "novice" to the Astral/Dream world.

The subject Lucid Dreaming is often met with positive reactions in general. At least, that's been the case so far for me. The most fun part is when you bring it up to a close friend and you find out that they also like to LD. Ah, good times.
