Title: Total Recall: The Woman Who Can't Forget
Post by: PPI Brian on April 18, 2009, 10:16:01 PM
Professor of psychology Bryce Duffy spent two days with Jill Price, the now famous California woman whose phenomenal memory has astounded scientists since June 5, 2000. As Duffy puts it: "(O)ur memories are vulnerable to contamination and distortion. Lawyers can readily fool us with suggestive questions; false memories can easily be implanted." But Jill Price doesn't have those problems. What could possibly explain Price's perfect memory?

She sounds like a sad, lonely person.  While reading the story OCD  came to mind.  Although, it would be nice to remember some things in detail of my past.  Like when I lived in Germany as a child.  I can only remember bits and pieces.
