Sageous:
"Again, agreed. But I have to wonder how many of the ADA and similar tech users are noticing that incoherence because of the tech, or because all that tech work has prepared their minds -- fired up their self-awareness -- for the event."
Well said. This is an important point for me (just too curious for my own good). Several of my lucid experiences came from observing a room, and then upon returning later, found a relatively small and usually unnoticed object had changed color. Success? Usually. I remember arguing with a DC for about 5 minutes about such an occurrence and he was able to convince me that I was mistaken. However, with the addition of self awareness practice, the DC no longer has any effect on me because I realize that he is dead, or that I am in a place I shouldn't be to begin with, or my feelings are not normal, etc.
On the other hand, those incidents are the minority; usually lucidity comes not from object observation for me, but from "rationalizing" that something is simply impossible or very unlikely as it relates to who I am.
