[edit] DRAM?

"Some scientists now believe that memories effectively get rewritten every time they're activated. "

So much for believing that the mind isn't a computer. That describes DRAM refresh perfectly. --Damian Yerrick (☎) 03:24, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

just because some features of the brain and some features of the computer match, does not make the brain like a computer. really, the chinese room describes quite nicely, why a turing machine can not become a brain, why a brain is no turing machine.--217.82.120.174 16:28, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

There do not seem to be many facts on this page, just "hey wow neato" speculation. Several large pinches of salt are advised, and possibly the attention of experts.

It shouldn't be changed. Even though a lot of people seem to speculate that they are very similar, they are not. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.106.11.134 (talk) 04:15, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Merge suggestion

I do not suggest merging Selective memory loss into this article because the two topics are extremely different and although overlap at some points, are still taught and learned and treated differently. Even though, "selective amnesia" redirects here, it means that it is only one of the many symptoms, it's not the same thing as selective memory loss. --Koveras ^☭ 17:17, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
