Statistics and you!

Let me ask a question that is the reverse of one that, I believe Dave was asking before. Who has access to this site but has not seen any strange memories? A lot of people have mentioned the phenomenon of memories that have been recalled, but don't seem to fit with the rest of your life, or what you remember. I still love the term 'hallucinomemories.' But it can't be all of us, statistically. A related but different question, every time we talk about this, I have to bring up that I'm not an expert in memory. So do we have anybody on this site who is? Psychologists, researchers, somebody who worked in a memory lab during grad school? I'll take anything.

Eleanor Lamb I'm just going with how your described it.
Eleanor Lamb I do engineering, not psychology.
Eleanor Lamb And you should have! I apparently look great in a men's slimline suit, if I do say so myself.

Eleanor Lamb Eh, I doubt any of us are lucky enough to escape from this that easily.

Hitori Togusa Worst case scenario I get black-bagged and vanish into some unmarked van. That counts as easily?

Hitori Togusa I was trying to throw Ardyn a bone. Next time. No matter how ridiculous the competition. I'm going to have to sign up. See if the system does work on me.

Eleanor Lamb Or they just use their fancy memory-altering powers to make you forget everything.
Eleanor Lamb I'm sure you'll look great in a nice fancy gown.

[The FACE Togusa is making at his screen right now.]

Hitori Togusa I might be off the hook on that front, since I doubt they'll bother Souji again.
Hitori Togusa At least if they're smart, they won't. The rest of his family is just too connected in the city.

Eleanor Lamb Bother him? What did they do?

Hitori Togusa Oh! Sorry, I thought it was common knowledge. Retrospec asked him to run the event, because he had done such a good job at the Valentine's Event. That's why he was the guy on the microphone.

Eleanor Lamb I must've missed that.
Eleanor Lamb I think he enjoys it though so they might ask him again.

Hitori Togusa Hey, Retrospec. Since you're listening in, if you really want to keep pushing your luck with the Izunia family, go ahead. It'll make my job easier.
Hitori Togusa I know Souji's uncles. And I have never seen them agree on something until Retrospec. It's frightening.

Eleanor Lamb Their building is a weird empty front.
Eleanor Lamb Do you really think they care what people think about them?

[standalonehuman]

Hitori Togusa Honestly? Yes.
Hitori Togusa Everything that they're doing is to get information out of us. To find out what we think. About them, about anything. No matter how mundane the information is, they want it.

Eleanor Lamb I suppose.
Eleanor Lamb It feels to me more like they just enjoy watching us squirm.
