No, thanks. I think I'm fine.

By the way. It's always the same stuff. Someone tells me that several months ago they dreamed EXACTLY what just happened. Yeah, sure. It's called deja-vú. However the fuck you spell that.

Not true.

In a study conducted by Peter Lee and Norman Brown (2003) with the University of Alberta students shortly after the September 11th attacks, the students were asked to immediately record their memories and then, years later to recall the details.

Although flashbulb memoris tend to be strong, vivid, and detailed, studies suggest that they are neither as acucrate nor as special as you intend (Neisser & Harsch, 1992; Schmolck, Buffalo, & Squire, 2000; Talarico & Rubin 2003).

Like other memories, they become less detailed and complete with time and are often inaccurate (McCloskey 1992; Weaver, 1993).

Also, in a case study involving the OJ Simpson case by H. Schmolck, E. A. Buffalo, and L. R. Squire of the University of California, San Diego; students were asked a series of question regarding their experience of the giving of the verdict just 3 days after it was given and then many months after it was given. Recollections eventually became distorted and inaccurate as time progressed. After a 32 month period interval, over 40% of subjects' recollections contained major distortions and more than 30% contained minor distortions. Interestingly, 61% of the subjects who exhibited major memory distortions indicated that they had high confidence in their recollections.

Thus, you are wrong - you do eventually forget profound events.

Please do not call me "bud" is such a condescending tone - I have enough respect for you to show my points thoroughly, I expect the same in turn.

Can you please be more specific in the proof and what you are talking about? Because it was not specified and is vague.
