(Hope I haven't started a thread like this before, but I don't think I did for fear of getting the Crackpot Theory Of The Year award... oh well...)
Does anybody else here have times when they can remember some event as having happened - then later, you find out that you were wrong and what you remembered never happened at all - even though you remember specific details about the event?
For me, then only evidence I have is dead celebrities. For whatever strange reason, I have over the years had about five different times when I would see a report of a celebrities death, then years later hear it again after going along on the assumption that they were dead, since I saw news reports from some time before.
My theory (provided that it isn't just all in my head, which could certanly be the case) is that on a very minor atomic level, the world is contantly flipping between alternate versions of itself, and that these casual slips would never get noticed unless there was somebody whose life was changed and you know about it (i.e. a celebrity dying one year, or many years earlier than they should). Maybe it's a function of memory, I just can't fiugure out why I keep remembering these things.
But, if I'm right and this is a larger than my craziness-type phenomenon, does anybody else here remember alternate timelines, maybe celebrity life or deaths, or other kinds of things, maybe even personal memories?
