And a question about dreams


Do you experience the phenomenon when you wake from a dream on occasion where you can remember things that happened therein exactly once? Like, an instant replay (sometimes backwards-ish) that can only be examined the one time, and then, try as one might, the 11-foot tall green man (or whatever) that was telling you about venn diagrams is just gone?


I asked some friends about this and they all knew what I meant. Is there a name for this?


And what if Native Americans in the 1600's, European time, had a dream about, say, tornadoes but then could only remember them the one time on waking?
