What do Brad and Jane's reports about what it's like to have a perfect memory tell us about typical memory?

c. We all could recall every event form our lives with the correct cue. Incorrect: Brad and Jane's true stories show that if we are not able to forget information that is not important, we could have difficulty functioning in day to day life.
