I work for a Chinese couple who are about 45 and I guess have been in the USA about 20 years. They speak good English, the woman with an accent and a slight brokenness, the man with a great accent that almost resembles the slow drawl of an old dubbed Kung Fu film. They have amazing memories usually remembers customers, order numbers, and every little detail about their restaurant. I consider myself above average intelligence yet my memory cannot compete with their almost photographic capability.
I wonder if they are unique or if many Chinese truly do have a better memory of details. Especially numbers?
