True story.
Many years ago a Dr. told me that since I memorize and forget 10 horse fields ten times a day every 30 minutes. It cultivates a hyper acute short term memory.
However, the down side of that is it messes up my long term memory. He was 100% correct. That's the way it's played out.

I was cured from that in 1994.
Back in the day the DRF had letters to the editor.
When Tom Durkin was hired at Gulfstream to replace Ross Morton (RIP). A guy wrote a scathing letter saying how could GP hire a hack like Durkin over the greatest announcer ever? Ross.
And he was very passionate!!
