The impression of familiarity
: Normally, when you meet a friend you can immediately
place and name him; you often know where you met him last, what he was wearing, and
what you said to each other. The feeling of familiarity becomes relevant only when such
specific memories are not available. It is a fallback. Although its reliability is imperfect,
the fallback is much better than nothing. It is the sense of familiarity that protects you
from the embarrassment of being (and acting) astonished when you are greeted as an old
friend by someone who only looks vaguely familiar.
