I make sure to use hyphens, en dashes, and em dashes where they belong. In ASCII-only environments, I mark an en dash (–) with a double hyphen and an em dash (—) with a triple hyphen.

I would contest the idea that the brain operates on cycles. It is much less organized than that.

    I would agree, but it's a workable short-hand / analogy for most of my use-cases.

    I (feel like I) know and remember more today than I ever have, but starting around age 50 I must admit, I am also forgetting things and have quite possibly already forgotten more than I currently know. One hopes one is hanging on to "the important stuff..."
