This is a great place. Carry on!

Thanks Daffy i was expecting disbelief and going against the grain but with other sites you just get burned for saying anything that is 'against the main steam'.

Frankly, I'm intrigued. Regardless of the supposed mechanism, it would be interesting to study, especially if it occurs so frequently. Unfortunately, I'm not a psychiatrist, psychologist, or neurologist. Perhaps you should start keeping a journal of the deja-vu experiences, so you can get a more accurate count.

It depends on the day really, normally if im more tired i get more DeJa Vu's. Well thats normaly the rule which i just thought it was something to do with being tired. I drank espresso every morning, lunch and evening every day but i got a similar amout of DeJa Vu's.
But like the dream one which just kills me believing its just some random neurone activity. Simply because 1 the dream was with non of the places or people (different building to what was there i'd heard no plans for it being changed and people who i didn't even know existed). 2 when it happened i had a DeJa Vu of longer then just the dream with me being able to remember after. 3 it was a completly new place and new people all of which had never been in my long term memory.
Oh and im training to become a P.P.N. or M.H.P.N. = Psychiatric Practitioner Nurse or Mental Health Practitioner Nurse which basicly means im going to be a psychiatrist or psychologist (depending on where i work) doctor but with slightly less hard work but more hands on work with the patients. But just as a Degree Mental Health Nurse i could go off to teaching mental health psychology and many other types.
So i guess i might figure out whats wrong with me in a few years

But don't worry it doesn't meen me going im still studying physics in my part time.

Actualy most illnesses take several days sometimes weeks to manifest, it can take up to 4 days before you get the symptoms of influenza. My friend found out he'd had neumonia on a check up that he must have had for over 2 weeks with no symptoms showing other then a slight cold. So its safe to assume that the brain would know if its going to suddenly adjust how it works to combat a virus as most changes the brain makes are during the night or slowly through the day so you would get to your meeting.
I also fail to see the point of "Imagining the Future" being at all relative to how the brain functions. Halucinations seem perfectly real but people "imagine" them. It is actualy safe to say that you are effecting everything in the whole universe by simply having an electric field existing in your body as we know electric fields will eventualy effect all matter in the universe given enough time, just like gravity, what happens may be completly insignificant but may also not.
Nostradamus as often as he is dismissed for rhyming in quatrains using metaphors simply to avoid him being killed. He was right in as far as im aware all of his acounts. If its just imagining then he's pritty damn good at it. A dream can be more real then life itself.
My friend Jozie when we was walking to go get lunch today said "i've got a really bad feeling" as we got more down the road she decided to call to make sure her daughter was okay so she called up the nursery turns out her ex hadn't taken her in so she called up her ex and she couldn't get a hold of him about 10 mins later he called her up and said that she'd just been sick. 55 miles between her and her daughter she still knew something was wrong. Technicaly thats impossible right? Ummm well it happened but her daughter is fine so no worrys.
If the human brain could guess that right i think its proving that the brain isn't just a machine like what everyone assumes it is, like the body is just a machine. Yes sure it can be fixed but if you think of it like a machine you are more naive then an unborn child because the human body is capable of things we still don't have a clue about.
