I used a system that was awesome. I can't remember what company offered it, though. Sorry.

i think it's the chain system
he calls it the association system ... but i'm guessing that the same thing.

what's the major system?

p.s. so far the book's a bit crap.
it features gem's such as
"you don't forget people's names; you don't remember them in the first place"

the phonetic alphabet is a very cool system for remembering (lots of) numbers.

I remember this one my pops tried to use many years ago, Trudeaux, or something or other. It taught with images, rather than number. I can remember very little bout it, so I guess it didn't work all too well.

There are gimmicks that work, if you are prepared to work at them. They look good in a TV studio, but they're too bit impractical in real life situations. Trudeaux and Co get paid to have memories for the mundane. They have an a great interest in the megabucks they earn for shipping out thousands of useless courses.

Here is the Gatecrasher method to a perfect memory:

The secret to a good memory is being interested in what you want to remember. No interest, no memory. Much interest, much memory.

How much of your school work do you remember?

How about the first time you had sex?

See, It works! 100% guaranteed.

how the crap do you get interested in useful but boring stuff though?
example: today i had to remember a PIN number of a friend to get some money out for them.
i tried the phonetic method (which is only for remembering numbers) and it worked very well. before i would have forgotten it for sure.
gatecrasher if i was following your method would i have to have had sex with the pin number?
