Not claiming it was wrong or anything! It was just that every other day had simply added to the previous day’s summary, so I was used to that…

Note that hippocampus is part of the temporal lobe of cortex (hence it is encompassed in the statement "is involved in ... memory (e.g., temporal lobe)").

Yesterday's insight is incorporated into "cortex", which is now said to be "involved in perception, action, and <i>memory</i>". I'm trying to keep the summary concise, and went back and forth on whether to have an explicit reference to hippocampus in there. Ultimately, since it's part of cortex (though not neocortex) I felt this sentence incorporated yesterday's post while expanding it with today's. Let me know if you have a compelling argument for including an explicit reference to hippocampus in the summary. I assume you mean in the “implications” summary…
