Were the last generation to use VHS so many younger generations have a hard time understanding this concept. VHS tapes work by leaving a magnetic impression in the tape that when ran over by a copper or zinc or silver needle (not gold) it will display what looks like an image. This image is usually distorted and takes the assistance of our brains ability to alter our perception to help us see a clear picture. But just like a VHS our brains also leave magnetic impression that we can play back to see an idea of an image. Memories. Memories fade away just like the VHS tape after awhile because the magnetic impression is impacted and altered by other forces like other magnetic impressions and electronic frequencies and being around certain metals like aluminum. (Take a look at some Alzheimer's research). Gold actually amplifies this magnetic frequency but thats another subject. The more traumatic an experience the deeper the impression the longer the impression lasts. Over time out memories change. Most time slightly but as we age out brains naturally alter the impression as a result of new information we learn that negates the possibly of some passed events. This is one of the effects of cognitive dissonance. Example: you remember yourself crossing a train track when you were younger and train went by. Years later you try telling the story but learn that railroad system has been out of service long before you were born. Your brain will fight to make the image stay but eventually will give in to environmental factors impressing on your logic and it will alter the story but by bit until its altered to a point where the train never crossed the tracks or you forget the memory all together. This is an amazing concept because its stating that most of your memories are actually fake memories or atleast altered memories due to environmental factors and the brains general desire for logical resolution. Of course many would immediately dispute this without doing any research of their own and i hope you won't succumb to the same exhibition of ignorance but instead research and study for yourself. But you can't blame them because if this is true that means were are not who we think we are because we are a summation of the experiences of our lives and if our memories are fake then we must be fake. Well so what awareness is the key to resolution. Either accept it or don't. You have that choice. But once you know the truth its hard to accept a lie..... Anyway, the typical response is your stupid what if there's a group of us and we all have the same memory. Any psychologist will tell you that no one shares the exact same memory. And if you separate the group each story will be different. Detectives use this technique all the time. The only reason you all would have a similar account of an event is if you discuss it afterwards. Especially events that are unbelievable like the sun burning out or the coming of Jesus or the global shift putting pittsburgh pa where Alaska was 10 years ago cause freak weather patterns making it freezing cold in the middle of may...... This group discussion is the social agreement of events. Wether he events actually happened or not doesn't matter once the groups subconsciouses agree on the series of events. Its fascinating what the mind is capable of. Travel light.
