Notes, followup? #9

In An Experiment with Time, Dunne discusses how a theoretical ability to perceive events outside the normal observer’s stream of consciousness might be proved to exist. He also discusses some of the possible other explanations of this effect, such as déjà vu. He proposes that observers should place themselves in environments where consciousness might best be freed and then, immediately upon their waking, note down the memories of what had been dreamed, together with the date. Later, these notes should be scanned, with possible connections drawn between them and real life events that occurred after the notes had been written. While the first half of the book is an explanation of the theory, the latter part comprises examples of notes and later interpretations of them as possible predictions. Statistical analysis was at that time in its infancy, and no calculation of the significance of the events reported was able to be made.

Good question-- can the person who submits the dream return to the dream later and add commentary on any perceived intersections with waking reality?

Does that really fall within the "dream trends" app? Maybe it would be an outlink to some separate module...
