Your memories bear striking resemblence to revisions of history promoted by "entertainers" such as Limbaugh.

It's always good to refresh memories from time to time from the original sources.

Yet McDermott says the study contributes to a growing body of evidence showing that strong conviction about the reality of a memory does not -- at least scientifically -- indicate that the memory is real. "In a courtroom, typically one of the most convincing pieces of evidence is when someone stands up and says they remember someone doing something to them, she tells WebMD. "But that compelling feeling doesn't mean it happened."

And McDermott says her own research has shown that people in certain situations can be reliably predicted to misremember something as real if induced through persistent imagining.

TP, Whatever you were doing in high school,it left quite a distortion in your mind.

I know what I remember, and I'll trust my memory over the judgement of one "TigerPaw" who thinks Rove sent CBS the faked memos.


Remember Ten, you were going thru your liberal phase back then........are you sure you weren't just a little too impressionable and misunderstood what was happening? <g>
