I saw something that said at one point in time, the average number sequence most people could remember was seven. I have to believe it's less than that now. Why? Very few people bother to remember a phone number anymore.
I'm guilty of no longer memorizing phone numbers. But it goes beyond that...autocorrect makes proper spelling irrelevant, and no one can multiply or divide these days without a calculator or being able to write or read cursive. None of my grandchildren can use cursive writing. I tell them all the time, 90 percent of all historical documents written in English is in cursive...how are history students going to be able to research old records???
Autocorrect is my worst enema
