  • Knowing the significance of the Gettysburg Address and remembering who read it are two different things. I can’t recite the first amendment, but I know in summary it’s free speech. I could probably guess but not say definitively who signed it, and for the most part, it doesn’t matter. If I need to know that, I’ll look it up, but the contents of the document itself it what matters. I have an okay general view of history, which is enough to not repeat it. I don’t need to remember the specifics and neither do most people.
