That's the problem ... those of us who are really good at remembering useless trivia, are really bad at remembering "essences" of things.
You know .... "can't see the forest for the trees" ?? However, I'm great at breaking legal problems down to the nuts and bolts ... and a was a damned good pathologist for the same reason (just love finding out what killed 'em ...). It's all nuts, bolts, and trivia to me. It's the warm, fleshy stuff that I'm no good at.
