ost_uid0]I thought there was something called like instant memory, like a feeling you felt when you touched something, you would forget it as soon as it occured, but it would go to short term memory if needed to be remembered, like pain. As for short term memory, wouldnt something stay in short term as long as you keep it in your mind all day? If you stop thinking about it, then it would be forgotten, if not, go to long term memory. Archer could have processed info over and over again while he was awake so he wouldnt forget anything for that day, but would forget it as soon as he went to sleep. Am I making sense?
Think of it this way. You hear a song on the radio. After the song is over, its still in your mind. You start singing it in your mind, then it feels like it is stuck in your mind because you sing it over and over again. The more you think about it, the longer it is in your short term memory. When you stop thinking about it, it will either go to long term memory, or you will simply forget it.[/color
