Watching new series with pleasure. The point in the programme where cell renewal was discussed , esp the memory of a memory of a memory left me wondering. I know that some memories get distorted as we age but the number of accurate memories people have from early childhood on must be staggering. Is this just happenstance because certain links/cells don't renew at the same time or is there a more complicated mechanism involved? (and by that I don't mean a soul - promise I'm not a god botherer).
