I agree. If you don´t remember your past you won´t know how to talk, eat, relate, function. you won´t remember your address, relatives, colleagues. You will be in a vegetative state, in a coma or like a newborn.

-Animals, children and some mentally ill don´t relate to time. Does it make them enlightened creatures?
