Can a memory be erased and replaced by another?

A memory cannot be truly removed. Techniques such as hypnosis have the capability to make someone forget a memory, but even forgotten memories are still there and actively affect the subconscious -- even more than a conscious memory. The only way a memory may be able to get replaced is over time, although this may still keep the original memory; the human mind still has a lot of mysteries.

What is 0xB8000000?

It's the physical address of the beginning of Video Memory! Now let's see what Video Memory is? In a nutshell it's the workspace used by Graphic Adapter. Naturally it was used in DOS, and I'm not sure if the address is the same in Windows or Other OSs. But back then anything that needed to be shown on computer's display had to be written there. If I'm right the even numbers in this Address, along with the positon of the cursor, specify the ASCII code of the character to be displayed. By that I mean if you put 0x41 in any of the cells that even Addresses point to, 'A' would be shown on the display and as the number of address increases the cursor will move further to the right of the screen. The odd ones on the other hand, show the color of the text to be shown. As an example: int *p = 0xB800000; *p = 0x41; *(p+1) = 4; This will result in a Yellow (If I recall the color code right) 'A' to be shown at the top left of the screen.


How does adapting to different environments lead to the development of diverse cultures?

Especially if a society is rather new or has little memory of old beliefs, the nevironment funds their entire culture. Myths and legends are based on unexplained occurances or sights within the environment. The culture's food and clothing become based on and limited to imediate resources. Even appearances and fashion can be based on neccesities for the environment, but made to be more attractive.

How many people from a million have photographyc memory?

The idea that the human brain can have picture perfect recall like a camera is misleading. Current frameworks on memory function invariably hold that memories are relational sensory experiences whose most salient features are the ones that are able to be recalled the quickest. This is why 'photographic memory' techniques that you will see all over the internet are really no more than mnemonic techniques - because it works by association and saliency. And almost anyone can practice this. If practiced enough - even an average person (in terms of IQ and education) can have what is commonly (but ultimately incorrectly) referred to as 'photographic memory'.


Why should photographic identification procedures not be used first when a subsequent physical lineup is contemplated?

Photographs of suspects should not be shown to witnesses if a physical lineup is expected later because the witnesses are likely to remember the people in the pictures as the perpetrator even if they're not and pick them in the lineup from this false memory.


Why would you not be able to develop pictures from a memory card if you can see the images on your computer and camera?

What youth acomplashments did Muhammad Ali have in school?

It was all one golden gloves championship after the next, of course boxing was not a part of his school's sports curriculum, it was all extra curricular stuff. According to Ali's teachers, he was an incredibly fast learner with photographic memory, however, when it came to academic work he was also ridiculously lazy and barely graduated from High School. Why did I mention that whole memory thing? Because its important regarding the former boxer's biography; Ali's memory, is what helped him take apart his opponents. He only needed to see footage of his opponent's fights once to memorize their patterns, once he had said patterns memorized, he would formulate a strategy to systematically take them apart. Muhamad Ali, is living proof that in the world martial arts (even sports martial arts), a sharp mind isn't enough; even afflicted with Parkinson's, Ali has retained his photographic memory. As his mid to late 70's fights showed, a sharp mind in a decaying body, does not work very well in a fight. When he was young, he was impecably conditioned, so his fists could work in tune with his brain. I consider Larry Holmes to in fact be an inferior boxer, because he had neither a photographic memory, nor did he have Ali's impecable conditioning. Again, Ali's mind was lightning fast; once he memorized your pattern, he could always figure you out. That is why Holmes had a hard time with Ali, even though Ali was an "old man," and why he was able to beat Foreman well past his prime. More dangerous than Ali's fists, was his brain. Ali could easily toy and play with his opponents in his youth, and get away with it, because using his photographic memory, he already had their patterns well figured out in his mind, hence his "knack" for predicting what round his opponent would lose.
