  Memories affect people in different ways.  Something maybe important and
remembered by one, and will be ho-hum to another and forgotten.
  Ask four people who are part of a collective memory (a natural disaster,
some event or other all were part of) one could get four different detail
memories.  The main event might be the same, but how it was perceived by
others may vary.
  Like people who witness the same accident may recall different details.
