in holland we have a saying called 'ezelsbruggetje' . it's something that makes it easier to remember something. does anybody know what's it's called in english.
One common mnemonic for remembering lists consists of an easily remembered acronym, or phrase with an acronym that is associated with the list items. The idea lends itself well to memorizing hard-to-break passwords as well.
For example, to remember the "classic" named colours of the rainbow (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet), it can be easier for some people to remember the mnemonics "Roy G. Biv" (a made-up name) instead. Or in reverse "VIBGYOR" pronounced "vib-GYOr". Or easier: Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain."
So there's three people on a thread, knowing what it is, saying what it is(or that the other person said more clearly what it is), then saying it's not what they said it was, or what they thought the other person stated it was and finally coming to a conclusion that it actually is what they said it is or what others linked it is?
I think the explanation was enough, just a confusion of knowledge. Happens more often then one would think, kind of over-knowing something,t oo easily, and then doubting it because surely it can't be that easy to know.
