Theory: One thing that sets human beings apart from animals and inanimate objects is the human capacity for memory.

In the big picture, memory is a relatively new development aided in its course by language.

We remember by repetition. Recent studies on the mechanics of memory indicate that if one hears something often enough the human brain takes it for the truth.

In order to better understand our failures and foibles, remember how easy it is to forget.
