Oh, and no, if he'd memorized it, then you could in theory dig him up
and examine the neurons to figure out what he thought. Or you can just
examine the existing system. If it works, the mechanisms of its working
are there to look at. If the information was ever there at all, you can
still get to it. Just because you don't know *how* doesn't mean it's
impossible to learn.
