Sherlock Holmes would be proud

When Watson told Holmes about some recent scientific discovery, Holmes replied with a statement to the effect that he'd try and forget it as soon as possible, as his mind was a tidy place, and he had no use for this fact.

I was just on the phone and realised that I couldn't recall the name of the person I'd been asked to on a message from. I'd remembered it for long enough to send the message by email, and had promptly forgot it.

Actually forget Holmes. Since I was away from my PC, I felt more like Manfred Macx when he loses his cyberware glasses in Accelerando.
