Here is a funny-because-it's-true piece on memory, perception and free will. It's well worth a read, just to remind yourself how things _really_ work :->
My friend George tells the gaming story of how his character was stuck in a basement, facing an army of rat-men, and my character ran away, leaving him stuck there alone, chucking down fireballs that were hitting both him and the rat-men.
It's an amusing story.
And it's true.
Except it wasn't him that was there. It occurred a good couple of years before he arrived at Uni, and it was a character played by my other friend Neil that it happened to.
And he's told the story _in front of me_. Which means he's probably told it so many times that he's forgotten it never actually happened to him...
