Frankly, I'm not even sure why it "sticks", it just does. I had the same affliction with cars in my youth where I could for some bizzare reason identify just about anything on the road, but was clueless as to where I picked up half of the information that I seemed to have floating in my head.
Damn shame I can't do that with investment data or work-related things. Guess I turned left when I should have turned right somewhere back in my vocational choices.
