The 2nd semester of college started for me yesterday, and an interesting piece of conversation came up.
The class was Philosophy and Film, and we were talking about the first movie we were going to watch, which is The Matrix.

The topic of the Matrix was about dreams and what not. The professor in the midst of what he was talking about said, "How do you know you're not dreaming right now? We all know how real some dreams can get. You could be dreaming right now and you wouldn't know it...(a reference to the virtual world created in The Matrix). The class just got so quiet, like everyone was thinking to themselves, "I COULD be dreaming right now..."

I wanted to go Well Professor Doe (of course not his/her last name), "I know I am not dreaming right now. How do I know this? Well, I can look at my watch, look at the time, then wait a couple seconds and look back and see that the time has not changed. I could also plug my nose and breathe through it, or I could probably even fly.

Of course I didn't say that, but has anyone encountered some times where they just wanted to splurge out about LD'ing, but decided not to?
