Yep, me too. But then as far back as grade school, I remember trying to convince teachers it was more important that I know how to find information (like in the encyclopedia) than have it on the tip of my tongue. They never agreed ;-) But I’d look at the encyclopedia, for example, and just know that I’d never be able to remember a fraction of what was in it, but boy could I ever become an expert in a hurry if I had a few minutes with the right volume ;-)

What they didn't understand is that your brain actually does become full.

I integrated the Net into my memory pathways some time ago.
