And this response killed the thread - I wonder how many looked up the word to discover it was insulting the paranoid primitives ? -- I hope lots of them did.
I couldn't resist, so I did...
From Wikipedia:
"The term pareidolia (pronounced /pærɪˈdoʊliə/) describes a psychological phenomenon involving a vague and random stimulus (often an image or sound) being perceived as significant. Common examples include seeing images of animals or faces in clouds, the man in the moon, and hearing hidden messages on records played in reverse. The word comes from the Greek para- —"beside", "with" or "alongside"- meaning, in this context, something faulty or wrong (as in paraphasia, disordered speech)—and eidolon—"image" (the diminutive of eidos—"image", "form", "shape"). Pareidolia is a type of apophenia."
That first sentence pretty much describes the DUmmies' existence....
