And I think I'm not a good rememberer...

Through Jay, I found and read this article, which is very interesting. It's sciencey, but it's such a basic concept and presented in such basic terms that it's an easy and enjoyable read.

Need a tease? One of the most fascinating patients in the history of the brain just died. He lived from age 27 to age 82 without being able to create ANY new memories, aside from muscle memory. Seriously. It's a ahort article, so go read it.
