Indeed, I'm very proud of you! :D
Wow, that's cool about the déja vu you had today. But maybe it was because today has been so much like yesterday?
Please excuse me while I slip into unfunny geek mode here:
The most compelling explanation for déja vu that I've ever heard was a theory by Charles Pelligrino. He believes that the mass of the Universe is enough that not only do we experience the Big Crunch, but that the Big Crunch forces enough energy to be concentrated into...well, almost nothing...that it causes the Big Bang all over again. Therefore, our Universe is trapped in an infinite loop of dying and being reborn.
Pelligrino went on to hypothesize that, since we live our lives all over again in each cycle, perhaps our brains may somehow retain some sort of extremely vague memory of what had happened before. Therefore, when we experience déja vu, we are somehow tapping into these memories. Which could explain why it feels so weird when it happens

I heard that our brain backfires and throws what just happened into a memory thinger, so we think its happened before, but its really just that one instance being thrown back in time. :P
Fine. Make me look stupid ;)bronrielJuly 24 2004, 18:59:22 UTC
But that would be simple and logical now, wouldn't it? Where's the fun in that! ;D
I déja vu is caused by the mighty tra la la. When you really, really, REALLY want somebody touch it, your memory goes into a bit of a time lapse that makes you want to wear huge sunglasses, grow a chin butt, and have neck seizures. ^^
