How the fuck do you people remember your great-grandparents' names? Did you actually know them? did you parents and grandparents talk about them by name a lot? I couldn't name a single one of my great-grandparents. I think the name of my paternal paternal great-grandfather is buried somewhere in my subconscious b/c my dad used to talk about how he would scare the shit out of his grandchildren with stories of the ghost who lived in the shed -- the ghost was named Old Man John.
Ok, so I remember the name of the ghost, but not my great grandfather's name. That's just spiffy.
