Again, this is and could only ever be a 3p description. They may have "forgotten where the bathroom was" in the shared reality but I daresay in theirs there was something distracting them. I don't think it was some kind of hole in their minds which is the (possibly naive physicalist) assumption made by most about what Alzheimers "feels like". Because you have holes in your brain you must have holes in your mind when you act like you have lost the plot navigating in 3D. Perhaps their perception in some other area accelerated. We can never be sure. K -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
