Simply put, alarm clocks can cause minor heart attacks and for someone with a weak heart, I believe it could be fatal.
Let's think about this for a moment,logically.
You're peacefully sleeping, when suddenly screaming in a high pitched, banshee sounding tone, you're alarm clock goes off. Suddenly your heart rate goes from a slow and steady sleep rate to a panic stricken, rapid heart rate.
Now, don't you think for someone with a weak heart it could be fatal?
Or is this why you're allowed to retire after you reach a certain age? Your heart can no longer take the strain, so they allow you to enter the time of life where a alarm clock is optional. I mean, if you WANT a heart attack it's certainly your choice, but it's no longer required you play Russian Roulette with your heart.
I suppose alarm clocks could be set to go off with something slow, steady and calming song such as Shenandoah, but really, who is going to wake up to that? It would seem more like encouragement to sleep even deeper.
No, I think the solution is simple; our bodies know when we've had enough sleep, we simply need to listen to them and wake up for work accordingly. We don't need any banshees greeting us in the morning; that would simply put us in a bad mood and thus cause us to be complete grouches to our coworkers.
I close with this, " Alarm Clocks Are Evil".
