How many telephone numbers do you remember nowadays?

I suspect very few as they are all stored on your phone in a memory chip.

So keep using your brain and don't become a robot.

Quite right Colin! It's about time someone highlighted this - though it seems to me that bloggers are constantly trying to use their brains so you may have a receptive audience ;)

I'ts amazing going back to college and doing Maths again exactly how much you forget. Not being able to use a calculator certainly stretches the old grey matter.
