So, MrBIGG, there's something to be said for amnesia after all! Seriously, though, you're right. Memory forms a major part of our subjective "here and now". The Pavlov's dog experiment was simple proof of that, and we know well enough that, for better or worse, we can "relive" experiences while either awake or asleep.
