Things Most Forgotten
I was relieved to find out that I’m not the only one who forgets things. Everyone does at one time or another, according to Karen Bolla, A Johns Hopkins researcher. These are the things people most often forget:
| 1. names | 83% |
| 2. where something is | 60% |
| 3. telephone numbers | 57% |
| 4. words | 53% |
| 5. what was said | 49% |
| 6. faces | 42% |
And if you can’t remember whether you’ve just done something, you join 38 percent of the population.
