[Andreazor]

I feel so sorry for David and his family.

I think my mother has this Capgras delusion. She often says that my brother is not her son.

my mother has schizophrenia though

Donald duck was INDEED a very attractive woman . ..

[Braxmetal]

3:00 I don't even recognize this. @_@

[theyangist]

Would DNA testing results confirm David's belief enough to reacquaint him with his parents?

[RageAndLove1]

I doubt it, he'd still be without the emotional reaction.

[BusinessButterfly]

this is like grammer you need to be taught the association process so that its retain in the brain this is another real evidence that we are in a form of a Matrix

I'm not sure a caveman with an inability to name animals would necessarily also be unable to skillfully react to their presence. There does seem to be a big difference between knowing the word for something and knowing-how to behave around it.

The guy's problem seems not to be naming, but recognition. Recognizing an animal takes him as much concentrated effort as another person might need (for example) to recognize a transformed variant of a complex mathematical theorem.

@clray123 hm, it's very fascinating, when he said that he knew what it was but couldn't name it, i wish they would have asked him if he knew where the animal lived or if it was carnivorous. Now i just have to find him and ask him myself :)

@horbergus It's a small world today, email Ramachandran and he might just divulge the confidential patient information to you :-)
