Doesn't the experiment described in the second paragraph (painful noises versus painful followed by less-painful noises) tend to disprove the peak-end rule? It's a shame there's no citation for it. 67.158.76.243 02:20, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Backpacker's Amnesia

Just a thought regarding this. Within my hiking group we often joke about 'Hiker's Amnesia', which is the state that occurs after a particularly long and difficult hike. When you come off the trail you may swear to sell your gear and live the rest of your life in a chair, but as little as a week later when the next hike begins, you're right at the front of the line. --24.4.183.207 23:32, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
