Yay! Thanks Xeno. I'm not gonna worry about memory loss or insomnia any more. But hope I don't forget where bedroom is anyway

Well I did say (and you snipped it out) 'I think withdrawing my comments would probably be the least unintelligent thing to do, as I stumble through the rest of the day.' I guess in my stumbling about that does not exactly mean 'I hereby withdraw my comment in the name of accuracy'. I better say it explicitly: I withdraw my comment about Ann's posting history. At least I seem to have partially remembered Ann's posting correctly. But then I watched a movie the other night, and about half way through I realized I had watched it before many years before. This happens a lot. I am not sure it is just aging memory. There seems to be an effect from meditation too. As the line gets closer to being drawn on air, the impressions are so much less deep, it fades much faster. Now I know the TMO researchers claim TM improves memory, but I wonder if there is a difference between shorter term meditators and longer term meditators. I know of one other teacher says that people who have awakening experiences often have memory troubles for a while, as well as insomnia. This might be an interesting science project. > > BTW, during that same period when you thought Ann was > absent but she was in fact posting regularly, January 22 > to April 26, you made 175 posts--fewer than she did. >
