aber wir tun ja auch schon das psychologisch richtige: wir reden über unsere krankheit und tauschen uns mit anderen betroffenen aus. :-)

Ist eigentlich bekannt, ob die Krankheit ansteckend ist? Manchmal denk ich mir, ich sehe heute mehr Gesichter als früher.

herrn nase hat's ja sogar auf große entfernung erwischt. man ist aber eh anfällig für sowas, wenn man fantasie hat -- wer hat als kind nicht in der wiese gelegen und gekuckt, was man in den wolken erkennen kann ...

für alle interessierten hier die wikipedia-definition: Pareidolia (from Greek para- amiss, faulty, wrong + eidolon, diminutive of eidos appearance, form) is a psychological phenomenon involving a vague and random stimulus (usually an image) being mistakenly perceived as recognizable. Common examples include images of animals or faces in clouds, seeing the man in the moon, and hearing messages on records played in reverse. Human beings are apparently "hard-wired" to identify the human face. One possible explanation for this is that unresponsive infants tended to be ignored or abandoned, as Carl Sagan speculated in The Demon-Haunted World. Skeptics assert that sightings of religious or iconic figures in everyday objects, such as Marian apparitions, are examples of pareidolia, as are electronic voice phenomena. The Face on Mars is a phenomenon that succeded the Martian canals, both eventually attributed to pareidolia, when the "seen" images disappeared in better and more numerous images. So many Canadians thought they saw the face of the Devil in the Queen's hair on a dollar bill in the 1954 series, adapted from a photograph (illustration, right), that the bills were withdrawn from circulation.
