13. Not Sure Of The Value Here. Might As Well Phrase The Question As

"what can you remember more quickly, something you've heard within the last month or something from 30 years ago".

Sure, some might recall something from 30 years ago more readily, but overall it would be a no-brainer to assume that most people would go with the recent memory answer. That would most likely be the case no matter how you phrased the question.

Therefore, based on that logic, the end result of the question will probably be able to be determined prior to it even being asked. Probably not much that can be learned from asking it then.
