RE: Neat flashback: Frank Zappa on What's My Line in the early 70s!
Emo Phillips - wow, blast from the past. Haven't thought about him in years. Dude was hysterical!
Now you've got me thinking about how Berenstein was spelled when I was kid...
Yeah it really freaked my mom out -- she found the books she had read to us as children, and her memory matched mine.
Others that I recall are: "Sex In the City" but now it's "Sex And the City". And "Interview with A Vampire" -- with the poster having the words in white except the "A" was blood red -- is now "Interview with The Vampire".
My wife owns that book, which is in a storage unit; one day we'll extract it, and see if it changed as well.
See that's the thing -- I can kinda understand it being an Internet phenomenon, because web pages can be changed. Even the Internet Archive can be updated, to make it appear as if "it's always been that way."
But I'm pretty sure they didn't break into my parents' home and replace the books from my childhood with identical copies except the author's name now has an "a" instead of an "e", with identical cracks in the bindings etc.
Until my mom found those books, it was "theoretical". When she found them, it's like, "Am I really from here?" Fun stuff!!! :)
It's possible that CERN is causing these reality shifts.
