Remembering Numbers
-------------------
"Most people have trouble remembering numbers. This is easy to
understand, because we all remember things that we care about, and
most of us don't care very much about numbers. The key to remembering
numbers is to translate them into something that we do care about
using mnemonics."

Memory Boosting Tips
--------------------
"What's the best way to keep your mind engaged? Robert Goldman, MD,
author of Brain Fitness, thinks that tackling unfamiliar tasks or new
ways of thinking can help develop underused brain connections. Among
his suggestions:
Take up word games like crossword puzzles and acrostics. Memorize
favorite poems or famous passages like the Gettysburg Address. Read
challenging books or articles that encourage you to expand your
interests. Practice other-handedness. If you're right-handed, try
brushing your teeth or writing your grocery list with your left hand."
