In PAM.P2 distinguish static memories (e.g., types, instances, ideas), from dynamic memories (e.g, episodes, situtions, events).Though that's an arbitrary distinction, for daydreaming I was wondering if I could get away with utilizing only dynamic memories. Perhaps not. Your answer shows a chain of activation from one thought to another. But what made you think of so-and-so's ex girlfriend in the first place. I see two possibilities, (a) it was just a randomly activated memory at the time, (b) it was relevant to some goal you were pursuing at the time. Your thoughts? ~PM
