Memory is...what were we talking about?

Turns out the Internet is ruining our memory.

That makes sense to me, just like cell phones ruined our bothering to memorize people's numbers and Facebook ruining our bothering to remember people birthdays - a particular thorn in my side as doing so was my one talent in this life.  Grrr.

This also reminds me of an old family friend, "Chief!"  He's a lawyer and the first time as a kid that I walked into his office and saw the wall-to-wall law books I asked him wow, do you know everything in these books?  and he said no, but I know where to find anything I need.
