Has anyone here had a sense of deja vu? Many times for me.
I swear I've read this before....It seems so....familiar.

from wikipedia:
A false memory is a memory of an event that did not happen or is a distortion of an event that did occur as determined by externally corroborated facts.
so, is REAL...really real?
wikipedia:
Memory is a complicated process, only partly understood, but research suggests that the qualities of a memory do not in and of themselves provide a reliable way to determine accuracy. For example, a vivid and detailed memory may be based upon inaccurate reconstruction of facts, or largely self-created impressions that appear to have actually occurred. Likewise, continuity of memory is no guarantee of truth, and disruption of memory is no guarantee of falsity. Finally, memory is a reconstructed phenomenon, and so it can often be strongly influenced by various biases, such as: subjective or social expectation, emotions, the implied beliefs of others, inappropriate interpretation, or desired outcome.
could this be why so many people adjust so well to the tower flip-flops without question?

I didn't see this one or at least i missed it. But the primordial sense of danger. When in Vietnam many years ago, i could actually feel it when the VC where around, when walking into a shack i knew whether or not I was the only person therein. When you hearing starts to go bad you start losing some of the primordial sense and it cause you to become nervous and sometimes grouchy because you can't hear well, others feel fear etc., So the primodial sense(s) are definitely there or were for some of us.
Common sense was mentioned and that realistically can't be found at the Kingdumb hall., no one there seems to use any common sense.
No primordial senses either, just uh huh, yes thats right, etc. etc. But then again this could be called the KOOL AID sense couldn't it?
