It would almost certainly fail for me. I seem to store stuff like this just fine, which I believe because the information will often come to me when I don't need it, but I'm no good at retrieving it at will just because it's somewhere in my brain.
Thanks for answering, but I don't fully understand your explanation. I think some relevant part is missing. Why isn't all information just somewhere in your brain? What makes this type of information different?
I know I have memories stored too that I can't always recall and have them pop up randomly, but I haven't identified any particular type of memory more difficult to recall than others. Many times I've wondered whether I locked the door and the memory never pops up, ever, so I guess I fail to store the memory in the first place.
