Some people claim deja vu occurs when your brain stores a memory in two different places. (For computer experts, it is similar to 'crosslinked files' on a hard drive.)
I often have deja vu after sleeping for an unusually long period of time. (The days where I am lazy and stay in bed for a good 12 hours or more and dream silly/crazy dreams.) Shortly after, I have a conversation (or other experience) where I feel like I've had the same experience before.
However, as much as I wish it had really happened before... I can never seem to 'predict' what the next sentence of the conversation/situation will be. But, even after it happens (someone says the next thing), it still seems to 'make sense' that I've heard it before. (I can't really explain it well)
I believe if I ever can 'predict' what happens, I'd be inclined to think there is substance to deja vu other than a faulty wire in the brain.
