Untitled
Note this posting on Ben's blog noting inaccuracies in the article. I have been through and given the article a thorough fact check, removing all the information I couldn't source. Would be good to expand the article as Ben suggests on his blog if good sources can be found. Enchanter (talk) 20:33, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Updating Method Section
I would like to update the Method section of this article to reflect what was said by Mr. Pridmore on memoryconsulting.com

I would like to rephrase the "comprises a sequence of images that he has permanently memorised as representing number groups, playing card pairs etc." to "comprises a sequence of images in a variation of the Mnemonic Memory System." With an inserted link to the wikipedia [|Mnemonic Major System]

"In Pridmore's system for cards, two cards are represented as a three letter word by the first consonant derived from the suits, the vowel from the first card's number, and the final consonant from the second card's number. For example an Ace of Hearts and a 2 of Clubs = "fan" with his predetermined letter associations for a total of 2704 unique images."
