So of course everyone’s going to agree!
And that’s where the trouble starts!
The truth is that no two people are exactly alike.
No, not even identical twins.
And we process, store and retrieve information though our own filters; generalising, pruning and distorting as we go…
So is it any wonder our memories change over time?
Yes! I remember it well!

Do spill! 🙂
