I like this so much! I always snooze really much and often I get up when
it's already late :(.
Maybe it will be cool adding two alarms in one alarmclock:
1) Time when the alarmclock should start playing the first alarm track
that you can pause using a snooze button (better if applyint these
ideas of a "progressive" snooze difficulty).
2) Deadline-time when the alarmclock should start playing the "no more
sleep" alarm that can't be stopped without using a quite hard puzle
(i.e.: "Ehi guy, you should get up... NOW!")
Bye. :P
