That is what I find now. I have been getting annoyed with myself
because I cannot remember things from all the heaps of books I have
read over the past 25 or so years and when I want to reply to
something here I get frustrated as I cannot find the place where I
read about it. On pondering this, I realised that the reading bypassed
the memory and seems to go to the understanding as when I look back, I
am a diffeent person than I was even 10 years ago. I feel that the
knowledge I have gained from my study has caused this change so I
guess I won't moan if my memory fails me, as long as the bit that
matters keeps growing for the better.
