The funny thing is when you read up on the workings of the brain, specificly the information our sensory organs send to our brains, you find out that it is partly imaginary. A good portion of it made up to fill an complete sensory scene whereby only a portion is sent to the brain every period, the rest is a "best guess". The nerve pathways simply can not transit all the information, so less important data gets drops in very specific compression algorithms and transformations.

That's right, as you are reading this post right now, there are sensory experiences you are having that were not carried through your nerves to reach your brain. Neuroscience says you are hallucinating the rest.

It makes one think...
