Why does this sadden you? You know a specific piece of information that someone else doesn't and that is wonderful. But step into the other position for a just a moment. Can you tell me the significance of
Currahee without googling it?
It is one of those little factoids rattling around in my brain because it has a relationship to something I find fascinating therefore I've learned a bit about it. New Zealand has never grabbed my interest so I haven't spent any time learning about it. I don't find anything in that situation to be sad about.
