Magic seven
Just a little somethin' I read this morning and thought I'd share it with ya...
************************************************
Magic seven
Humans have basically three forms of memory: Sensory, long-term and short-term. Long-term memory is just like hard-drive space. Similarly, short-term memory functions like a very small RAM. This short-term memory is capable to hold only about five to nine (seven is an average) items at a time.
Retrieving information longer than this will need you to either pack it together into seven units or store it in long-term memory.-- Mind Cafe

Re: Magic seven
I seldom make a grocery list. I buy what I know i need plus whatever seems good at the time. I always make a list for truck stuff and the house. 
Of course, if I had a "magic seven" I wouldn't need the truck.
