An interesting article on memory. Try the quiz(it takes 3 minutes)as its really interesting. It references Total Recall which is based on one of my very favorite Philip K D*ck short stories.(can't believe a man's name is bleeped).

I forgot about Pearse (and I'm only metres away from Pearse museum!)
I was trying to be funny and yet again failed miserably. One day, one day it will happen...  |
