Hmmm, I still don't get it.  As a school teacher I expected the kids to have 
"memorized" the times tables.  We also expect our students to memorize (store 
in memory) enormous amounts of information.  Lots of LD learners have trouble 
with making reading memory tasks automatic, and have to keep "relearning" the 
material.
