    "It is a mistake to think that [the mind] has elastic walls and can distend to
     any extent. Depend upon it there comes a time where for every addition of
     knowledge you forget something that you knew before. It is of the highest
     importance, therefore, not to have useless facts elbowing out the useful
     ones".

            How true this is. Sadly, I must report that I still know all
            the words to the "Gilligans' Island" theme song...
