The original study used cbs, rather than bbc.  Since I am talking to
a UK audience I decided to make this change.

Thanks (to John Pane as well), my UK knowledge got in the way.
We have the 'Inland Revenue' over here.  I guess some of the things
I hear on US cops & robbers shows has yet to sink in ;-)

IBM, International Business Computers.  My computer background
is showing.  It used to be the big name in computers/software.

These mistakes and assumptions all go to show that it is a persons
existing knowledge that is probably the most important issue to
consider when taking limitations of short term memory into account.
