If there's a reason I appear "smart" it's because I have a real bad memory... heh
I think our ability to forget things and start fresh is exactly how our intelligence operates best. Nearly everything I've done in the past is eminently forgettable. I'm pleased with how little of it I can recall.
In brief, I'd dispute the premise of the thread starter. Our capacity for genius is based upon our ability to let go of old, outmoded, and irrelevant experiences and concepts from the past and not any ability or capacity to recall them.
