This brings up a question I'd like to talk about. Would you find this ability to have super memory to be a disorder, or a gift?

I personally would love to have a better memory, as my current memory sucks. I'd love to remember every little spec of detail that happened in every single day of my life. You guys?

My memory is pretty bad, so sure, why not.

No, I wouldn't want to remember everything, however when you are actually attempting to learn something, having it stored that way is quite amasing I suppose.

But in the end knowledge isn't everything in life or doing your job, so it isn't a fix but nice still.
Now if you could also store talent and experience, now that would be good!

Very exploitable.

It's be awesome to basically "watch" your memories, but could other people install memories on others?

It would be cool, and very useful for remembering or forgetting, however it does raise a lot of issues that GITS addresses fairly well.

It would really be beneficial to those with a life of cannabis abuse.

What were we talking about again?
