      Hi @witchdoctor101

      I’d not heard this – I’m sure it’s the case that we learn a lot that we don’t remember, but I kind of hope it’s not as much as 80% – that doesn’t bode well for my PhD.

      I want to know why I can remember the lyrics to LOADS of songs, but I can’t remember important information like what time I’m meant to be somewhere, or important details about the work I’m doing 🙂
