i'm actually signed up to the 11:11 progress list, so i'm not saying what's right or wrong, just giving a perspective.

couldn't this seeing patterns when you look at clocks, etc (eg. 11:11) just be part of the reticular activating system? I think the simplest example i can give is from poker... you always here about people moaning how they're so unlucky and never win, this is because they only remember the times the lost, not when they won. Could it be the same with this? That people may look at the clock 100 times a day, without being aware of it, seeing patterns with the clock maybe 5 times, only remembering the times they saw the patterns, and thinking... wow, i always see 11:11, 4:44, etc, when i look at the clock.
Or is it that these patterns happen so often that the RAS can't explain it?

Just a thought
