I'd just like to say that I have had points in a dream, where though not repeating themselves, a person will say the same thing to me that they said in a dream before I awakened.
The fact that the situation upon awakening is exactly the same as the one I dreamed may come from something close to precognition, but not exactly. I'll call it, an intelligent deduction. Lets say that your brain takes in some information as you sleep and are about to awaken (so a sound for example) and implies it in your dream.
Now, when you are dreaming, the speed of your dream can be faster or slower than the actual speed of time around you. For example: I can sleep and dream for 10 minutes, but the dream will seem like 10 seconds; or; I can sleep and dream for 10 minutes and the dream will seem like an hour. I've had this happen both ways, so don't tell me it ain't true. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/suspicion.gif" alt="" />
So back to the original subject, maybe your brain takes in the information (sound) and prosesses a possible senario of what will happen next, and applies it in your dream. This could happen so fast (a dream of .5 seconds seeming like 10) that the real world will not have played out this senario before you finish dreaming and if your brain calculated it right, you will end up with a repetition of what you dreamed upon awakening. Maybe you dream the event exactly as its happening, your dream happens so fast that the world would seem to stand still, and you awaken to the event still just beginning to happen.
Bam! Mini-Precognition! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mage.gif" alt="" />
Hehehe... I should write a book on my lame ideas. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> Or are they... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

Nope not over, not even a P.S. yet.
I'd also like to say that I share the adventure of an illusionned of fall. But I'm not sure if you've ever felt it this way. In my dream, I am tiny, like an inch tall (2.2 ish centimeters, right?). I am on a wooden chair, then I fall off (a big drop for such a tiny guy <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />). I awaken feeling as though I actually lived the event of falling. But there is one distinction between my experiance and the common one. This time, I bounced a couple times like I had really fallen... and I mean BOUNCED capital B! No way I could have simulated it by shaking up and down in my sleep. One more mystery... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />
