Deja-vu happens all the time. Usually caused when nerve impulses from one eye are very slightly delayed reaching your brain compared to the other eye. The slight variation in reception time causes your brain to think you have seen the same thing twice. We are talking fractions of microseconds here but the brain is a very complex organism.
I would like to see an open feed left on here all the time. One that we could ask a question or report something we heard or knew about. As it is now the only way to do that is call your phone.
No one was trying to legitimize deja-vu by making it sound like a mysterious phenomenon.The question simply was if anyone had experienced it.Of course it has no significance,but it would make a good topic of discussion.
Okay, okay, yes...I have experienced deja-vu, or at least thought I had. I saw things happen and thought that I had seen them before. I went to a neurologist for an unrelated matter and the topic came up and she explained what was really gong on. It's not a big deal. It's not only how and when nerve impulses get to your brain, but also how the brain processes those impulses. There's a lot of other stuff involved and many books have been written about it and I'm sure Joe doesn't have enough space here for all that.
Coward. The Watchman.
ReplyDeleteWould you like ALbero to push daisies or just move away?
ReplyDeleteOn a more serious note,I would like to know if anyone has experienced Deja-vu.If possible,an example or description of their experience would be nice.

ReplyDeleteI think that is the first time I have heard it explained that way.

Neither. But I would LOVE negative people such as yourself would move away, or push up daisies.
It would be an improvement to this area. And please take your friends with you.
That would be two people gone and twice the improvement.

ReplyDeleteWhat are the top ten things that need changing in Salisbury OTHER than the political leaders? Be mature not juvenile in your response.
