Fred Langa got the term eidetic memory (photographic memory) into our top Alt-Clicks, where it stayed for a few days. A remarkable number of Alt-Clicks from a bi-weekly newsletter. Go Fred!

"Unfortunately for those of us without eidetic memory, the results do not stay on screen for more than a second or two."
