"It just did."

Yeah, but why would your brain screw up at just ANY time? And. . .how can your brain just have an, "error," like a computer? Humans aren't perfect, but I go by a philosophy that creates the mind as the most powerful flawless tool to use in existence. Could this REALLY not be true?

Oh, and as an edit: I've experienced deja vu, and yes I've been able to place it SEVERAL times. (Everything I felt, I remembered from my DREAMS.)
