saul, true what we achieve into longterm memory never escapes until we die;
retrieval is the issue always, and made easier with practice.

I forgot all about Longstreet. Hard to beleive that my forte is American
History, huh? But I didn't want to cheat. I knew that Lee became ill and had to run things vicariously. How much you forget in 20 years. Well, maybe not forget, for they say we never forget, just unable to recall satisfactorially.
