Do you ever say, " I accidently forgot"? Don't we forget things by accident by its definition? Do we ever forget anything on purpose? I thought "forgetting" happens by something slipped out of one's mind, so happens by accident, and therefore saying "accidently forgot" is redundant. What do you think? Faith2k

I agree with you. Nobody forgets on purpose.
