It Was You! pg 27 | The Illustrated Guide to Law

It is perfectly normal for our brains to alter memories when we share them with others, by filling in the blanks. It works the other was around, as well -- when we hear someone else talking about it, we can fill in blanks with what they tell us, and even turn down the volume on connections we'd made that don't seem to make as much sense as what the other person told us.

    This page now has one correct “Alice” but still also sports three incorrect “Amy”s. (All in places where re-doing the lettering is likely to affect other parts of the line spacing, unfortunately.)
