I just remembered part of a dream I had last night...

I just had this argument with a coworker less than an hour ago. She thinks dreams actually mean something, I was trying to tell her that really it's just your memories/experiences being sorted through and "replayed" before being converting and stored in your long term memory, albiet without your logic center to aid. The dream you see is just the "projection" of this process that results from the nerves firing off in your brain.

She wasn't having none of it. We haven't talked for awhile and I sit right next to her. :smilielol5:

This is 100% completely and totally false. Borrow a psychology book from a college freshman for an explanation on how short-term and long-term memory work.

No one really know how long-term memory and dreaming really works, but the two being related is a commonly accepted theory. Look up Memory Consolidation. In this theory, dreams are thought to be a result of neural firing that occurs when your "memories" become independent of the hippocampus.
