If I could describe that, I'd know better than anyone on the planet exactly how the human brain works.

At any rate, the brain doesn't just store facts... it connects those incoming facts to related and subjective impressions, related and extraneous background info, and related and unrelated internal thoughts and memories that happen to be running through the brain when it collects that new information.

All of that goes together into one meme that is much more than the sum of its parts, completely unique from person to person, connected to other such unique memes by methods we don't as yet understand, and because of the brain's ability to take intuitive leaps, completely unpredictable in its potential.
