Sorry if anyone can see those stars in between the words I copied and pasted this from my iPod dream journal app and for some reason it put stars there. So the stars are spaces just so you know.

Yeah, that kind of stuff can happen sometimes. Sometimes some RC's just don't work...I've heard of finger counting not working but never finger pushing.

A lot of my RC's don't work but flying always seems to do the trick for me.

nose pinch should work almost all of the time but i guess your mind is wierd. try inception style rc, try to think back to how you got where you were and why you are there. chances are you wont be able to answer all of the w's(who what when where)

That worked for me twice!! It's genius if you ask me.

I've had the nose pinch fail on me before. rkenning is right though answering who, what, where, when and why is a good alternative.

I've never really used RC's until I saw Waking Life and tried the light switch RC in a lucid. The first time I flipped the switch nothing changed. I was like 'Cool! Yay! Let me try again'. So I flipped the switch again and the light levels changed and everything got darker and I freaked out slightly. I didn't know that sometimes RC's didn't work. It completely ruined my lucidity.
