Topic	Even amnesiac patients report experiencing the tetris effect. Do you?

Something about procedural memory being accessible even when other memories arent. Not unique to tetris, but it is one of the more notable examples. Similar things happen with amnesiacs who knew how to play the piano. They still can play, but often times the shock of stopping at the end of a session can cause them to have some sort of panic attack (this has been reported a couple of times with tetris as well) Memory is weird. I do everything I can to maintain mine, because the thought of losing it in my old age terrifies me. <cite>Notschmendrake posted [p:962640990] in Even amnes...
