 Yet the objection may beg the question of how memory should function (Ludlow 1996). For the issue is precisely whether memory is supposed to preserve past contents across different environments. The counter-suggestion is that memory instead offers information about past events, in terms pertinent to the present environment (Ludlow 1996; 1999, Bernecker 1998). Ludlow (1999) provides an illustration: “If at t1 I believed it was possible to drown in water, memory will deliver a t2 belief that it is possible to drown in twater—and good thing, too! Twater is no less …dangerous than water” (p. 167).
