if we humans didnt have any memories how would that world be . "i think there fore i am " . True but what of
" i remember, what i think, feel, experience therefore i am ." what will happen if we could remove all our memory from us . will there still be An I left . at all times what ever is happening to us is all like data input into a computer . now what we remember out of it is something we dont seem to have any control over . today what seems so utterly important we cant even recollect it a few hours days later . give me a few years and i would have managed to erase even the most vivid images from the store house that my barin is .

i dont know
