The human brain is a wonderful thing.

On the way home, my phone rang in the car. It was a mobile number I didn't recognise, so I answered it with just "Hello".

There was a pause.

I said "Hello?" again.

*silence*

I was about to hang up when a voice said "Hello"

I said "Richard!"

He was stunned. This was someone that I've not spoken to in (and we worked it out) around eighteen years yet my brain, being an ultimate supercomputer pulled his voice out from my distant memory and told me who it was within microseconds.

I was impressed as well, but I've always been good with voices anyway having been listening to people via wireless communications since I was about 12 but I still think our brains are bloody amazing things.
