"What if he took the information in his head? - like we all do when we leave a job."

I thought the same thing when I left my previous employer 8 months ago. An ex-colleague and still very good buddy messaged me recently asking about something(now his responsibility) I worked with for 10 years, and could NOT for the life of me remember the answer he needed. Disheartening really... Perhaps it's because I'm in the same boat as the defendant, the years ahead are much shorter than the years behind, and as much as I would like to think it, the memory isn't what it used to be... The information I may reproduce may look like something out of the Telephone game.
