    i actually think it is fascinating. even though you have a nearly photographic memory, you still tend to invent details and exaggerate things wildly on a regular basis. you are the sort of person i read about in my urban legends books that passes along information with their own additions. and eventually the story is really absurd and awesome.

    It's human nature. You don't have to read about it in an urban legends book. No one has a perfect memory, so they remember parts of the story & fill in the details with stuff they make up, usually subconsciously.

    but some people do it so excessively and often that it suprises me.

    no. what is really happening is that a lot of times people tell me stuff that just isn't true and i believe it. there have been both cases of that as well as me misremembering things on here.

    ok, 150 is not technically hundreds.

    I don't know if everyone remembers but to say this woman's brain was dead is not the case. The woman opened her eyes, she made sounds like speaking.........you're acting like she was Claus Von Bulow's wife here who never moved. This lady was there and could follow your hand.

    Would she ever be a rocket scientist or drive a car? No. But pulling the plug on somebody and starve her to death and pulling the plug on a ventilator that is specifically keeping a person alive are two different things entirely.

    The only attachment to this woman was her feeding tube.....to say her brain was liquid is just not true. They starved this woman to death....we don't do that to dogs in a pen.....it's illegal to starve dogs. But not somebody's child.

    These videos were undated. We do not know if that footage is current.

    It is never ok to withold the necessities of life from someone to cause death. We are not talking about artificial life support here. We are talking about food and water. If you withhold that from someone no matter what shape their brain is in they will die.

    In this case, I disagree.

    That's my decision to make for me, not the government. Last time I checked, humans aren't born with a plastic tube in their stomach. That's every bit as artificial as other devices.

    I've never understood why strangers cared how I die. How I choose to die is my choice...
