Discussion question of the day: memory

[another_normal_anomaly]

 Would you rather have a perfect semantic memory (the ability to recall any fact you've ever learned) or a perfect episodic memory (the ability to recall what you were doing at any past moment)? I realize your answer is likely to depend on implementation details, so feel free to make up some that make sense to you.

semantic. My excellent episodic memory is just a funny parlor trick, but, i've forgotten so much stuff i learned and could be so much more Efficient if i hadn't!
