This is a purely educational website. Nothing here is legal advice or creates or implies an attorney-client relationship. If you have a specific legal issue, PLEASE talk to a lawyer who practices where you live—laws vary from place to place, and how they're applied varies from courthouse to courthouse. Your local county bar association can probably refer someone who handles matters like yours.
By using this site, you agree that you are awesome. Use of this site also constitutes acceptance of its Terms of Service and Privacy Policies, which are known to medical science as a cure for insomnia.
It's best to keep all discussions in the comments. But if you really need to reach Nathan privately, go ahead and email him at n.e.burney@gmail.com. He won't mind.
THE ILLUSTRATED GUIDE TO LAW and the PEEKING JUSTICE logo are pretty damn cool trademarks and should probably be registered one of these days.

Second attempt. Yes, it is fascinating how we “think” we remember things, but we really don’t.

This version of that is kinda boring lol. I noticed the gorrilla easily.
If you know what is going there… then you will always notice the gorilla or unicorn or whatever. However, someone who has never seen this or the other videos of the same kind and has no clue about what is going on, might not.
I was in a philosophy seminar on perception and we were shown the gorilla video, and even knowing what to expect because the prof had talked about it at some length, nearly a third of us *still* missed the gorilla. I was one of the ones who saw it just fine, but I’m unusually good at multitasking.
Did you see the followup video? With the stage curtain in the background?
