Dunno about that; in my case information is either worth knowing (like 'what poplar tree marks the turn left to Epipactis palustris' - ideally outsourced to a map, but I would just get confused, or 'what kind of porridge to cook tonight given the kid rejected x, y and z' - ideally outsourced to a notebook, but there are too many details to bother with it) or worth losing.

When I am ill, though, I outsource my meds list to the fridge door. (Recipes and shopping lists, too, occasionally.)
