Does anyone know why the brain does this?

There is also research that indicates that when reading a textbook, the easiest things to learn are the stuff in the 1st chapter and last chapter. The stuff that's the hardest to remember is in the middle.

I'm not exactly sure as I have not researched this fully but I think it has something to do with memory nodes.

I searched memory nodes and found the following...It's does not talk about this specific phenomenon but if you read between the lines, it makes sense.

Funny, thats the 2nd time RAF has fished one of my threads from OI... Well, the farewell comrades one wasn't mine technically, but still...

When I can't go to science and environment, science and environment comes to me. :P

[Vinny Rafarino]

Well I may think you're misguided and a wee bit off but that is not an excuse to treat your threads any different that any one else's.

its becuase you brain associates the first and last letters first as long as the first and last letter is correct the rest can be jibberish. its very clever but why it happens i don't know
