"Build up of fatigue poisons is not the same thing as depletion of energy reserves"

I made it clear that I was referring to ACCESS to energy not to the PRESENCE of energy. There is plenty of energy in a dead person, but they cannot access it through brain awareness if there is no kinetic brain activity.

"Not obvious at all, I'd say. The brain is supposed to get its energy from blood glucose. I'd bet there is no drop in blood glucose level"

This would support what I said:

"the ACCESS to energy and the capability to REALIZE it kinetically are obvious facts". So the ability to access energy and utilize it declines during wakefulness (and high energy usage), and inclines during sleep.
