I was trying to take money out of an ATM and I couldn’t remember my four-digit PIN. I use these machines most weeks and I don’t have to think about my PIN – I just enter it.
About half an hour later the number came back to me and I immediately knew that it was correct. What caused this brief memory lapse and what happened later to allow me to remember my PIN?
