"it was a waste of time". Taking such a boring test, would be for each of us a waste of time too.

you're wrong. he doesnt have a long term memory. if he had a long term memory he would for example remeber being married to deborah, being a church musician.

NO your wrong, he doesn't have a short term memory, but remembers things before his illness, but not after.

He does not remember anything, not before or after the illness.
He knows how to play Piano because of the same reason he knows how to speak, write, eat or to button his shirt. Those things are not stored in the brain as memories. But everything related to memory, how he spend his life or what year it is, is gone.

No he doesn't remember the past. He remembers subconsciously how to speak, write, play the piano, walk, etc. but every person he meets is like he's seen them for the first time, except for his wife.
