What? He says he remembers fields full of fireflies. Why imply that it's memory distortion? I'm surrounded by fields and in the high point or July there are breathtaking displays of fireflies at night, and it's not my imagination. Why tell someone that they misremembered that?

I’m not saying that. Just asking if they remember an instance of it and comparing to a non-instance today.

I think I worded it poorly.
