READING Have you ever looked through a photo album with your parents or friends, and, after describing a memory, had your parent/friend reply, "That's not how it happened"? How can two people, who were at the same place at the same time, have two different memories of the same event? One reason has to do with personality. When two people observe and remember the same event, each person remembers only the parts that are the most important to him or her. The other reason is that the brain doesn't store memories as an exact copy of an event, like a videotape. Instead, it scatters bits and pieces of the memory throughout the cortex - the wavy outer layer of the brain. Each time a person accesses a memory, the brain has to decide if each bit actually belongs, then arrange those that do into proper context. Sometimes facts gets added, tweaked or lost in the process. The more times a person recalls a memory, the more it gets changed. Finally, most people cannot remember events before age three. That's because parts of the brain that are responsible for storing memories aren't yet mature.
