Before a person's memory gets erased with the hope of "re-loading" that person's memories into those memory molecules, hopefully somebody remembered to back up the person's memory to begin with.

"Did you back up Dave?"

"I thought you were going to back up Dave!"

"Dave, don't drink...never mind."

"Even if I could still chase them, I'm too slow to catch them."

You'd be surprised Doc...I once thought that way as well, until I discovered how many wonderful women one might meet with only a stun gun and a roll of duct tape. Of course, many of these relationships have ended with me sobbing like a baby, but that's just one of the risks you've got to take now that pepper spray is available to the general public...

LOL!

I've heard that if you get pepper sprayed often enough, you can develop a degree of immunity.

Thats one thing you can look forward to.

Was it Quade or Howzer? I can't seem to recall...recall...recall

I am not sure this is such a good idea. Memories tend to be intertwined with eachother.

In an article in Science magazine, they demonstrate that by inhibiting the molecule they can erase long-term memories, much as you might erase a computer disc.

I would give everything I own to forget my ex wife and her family.

Avec le temps... avec le temps, va, tout s'en va
on oublie le visage et l'on oublie la voix...

Let's start using this information in those madrass's that keep turning out hate-filled potential "martyrs" and go from there.
