I've heard it said that the invention of writing caused people's ability to remember things to weaken. The fact that I can now call most people by either speed dialing, or picking their name off a list, or in some cases just saying the person's name, has had a very detrimental effect upon my ability to remember things like phone numbers.

I sometimes have to think pretty hard just to remember my own number.
