i always wondered... if one has no short term memory, then how can he have any sort of long term memory? i know the two are different and maybe not necessarily connected but its struck me as queer nonetheless

how do you mean Dino?

There are some example of people without STM, but with intact episodic long term memory, so that they for example can tell the same tale several times in a row, since they get reminded about the same thing again when they say it, and having no STM and availablity to store new memorys, the already forgotten they told it in the first time. "i remember when me and my brother went fishing. There was pond that had a big rock in it. That reminds me of the place me and my brother where fishing in.." :)

this is a stupid one.

but i just got out of my pool.

is the freestyle stroke really a stroke in competition?

or during the freestyle event you can move anyway you want...

it just happened to work out that "freestyle" was the fastest?

During the freestyle event you can, in fact, swim whatever stroke you want. The "freestyle" stroke as we know it is the fastest (for most people), so that's why they swim it.
