I dunno enough, because I .....uh....forget, though hypnosis and this
gambit are certainly fascinating if not
sorta of risky, because terrible memories are better-off forgotten,
though don't take that cliche or perception to the (memory) bank re
anything i'm b.s.ing about especially this.

So what are the other philosophy angles of this apparently new
finding?

Well, do more people have photographic memories than previously
thought?

Wow, that's something, because what if I could recall perfectly every
damne thing I ever saw, read, thought about...nah...that wouldn't be
all great for me and society.

Would it make me omniscent, or at least omni-gifted?

Yeahhh, by gosh, gifted.

Everybody could be above average, which is a non-tautology or mal-
syllogism tho at least a super-moronic statement even if garrrrisson
keillor
uses it as a joke about his above average hometown.
