Law of conservation of attention

I had a major revelation today :The law of conservation of attention.

The total amount of attention in a day always remains constant. It may be transfered from one lecture to another. Attention can neither be created nor destroyed.

This became apparent to me after a stroke of brilliance in Stats class followed by sheer dumbness and sleep in Accounting class.....

See, i even have empirical data supporting my law :)

Cheers,
Shruti.
