So here is the latest rant. Why is it that no one under the age of 50 can remember anything. I thought lack of memory was an old person thing. I have short term memory issues, as in a few seconds minutes and hours ago. Usually they are things like grocery lists, or web sites I heard on the radio and immediately forgot. My issue is that I am teaching young engineers how to do my job, in case I ever get tired and retire. When I give them something to do and describe it to them, they can't remember what I said yesterday, much less last week. How can you work in a technical field and not have any recall of facts, formulas, etc?
