Self Portrait of Space Ship!!!

Ah, the fun you can have with a picture of yourself, (Taken with my trusty Vivitar ViviCam 3705 camera) and Photoshop.

AHHHHHHh ahahah hah ah ha ha ha.

It's 9:30 on a Friday night.
I'm sitting at work, toolin with Photoshop.
Not workin on my dissertation.
Not lookin for a post-doc.
Just toolin with Photoshop... and basically, myself.
Its obscene, and not even in a dirty, dirty, dirty way.
Things I thinkin a boot weh I wastin time:
Priming. In the context of memory. Nondeclarative memory. Something our brain just remembers but not on a conscious level.

What if you took a bunch of stock market traders, people who watch the market everyday and design a series of experiment to test price priming? The test would be design to access their priming memory. The test numbers would be likely index prices, of say the S&P 500 in the future. Without engaging their consciousness or reason, would they predict future stock market prices better then the educated guesses. And how far into the future would this prediction be.

Just an idea.
