A Conversation for Deja Vu
Deja vu and The Matrix

I liked the theory presented in this film, where deja vu was caused by re-programming the matrix itself that alters something inside it. This causes a "glitch" in the continuity, leaving those "inside" feeling like they had experienced the previous moment before. I like these kinds of theories because they overrides scientific explanations, which are often to clever for their own good. I mean, what if the world was engineered in such a clever fashion as to render the "real" explanation invisible to us all?
The same kinds of theories can be applied to space, quantum, relativity, ad infinitum.
(I guess I just like "what if" scenarios)

When I saw the title of this article I /knew/ I'd find a posting referring to the Matrix hanging off it somewhere...

was it actually deja vu though? The cat appeared to walk past the doorway twice, within a short space of time. Surely this is a hallucination, rather than deja vu?

Krans: Damn! I hate to be predictable!!!
Rocket Man: Isn't deja vu hallucination, though? The feeling you have seen the exact same thing before.

From what I remember, deja vu is hallucination - I certainly experience it regularly, especially when I'm particularily exhausted.
