Yeah that's the best part of using these things in an emergency.
30 years ago I used to memorize about 20 seven digit phone numbers. I may have remembered one or two ten digit numbers for long distance calls but we live in northern Ontario and the entire area of our province is the size of France and has one area code.
Now I have a hard time recalling my wife's number if I had to call anyone I know in a public pay phone. I have to stop and think to remember what my number is. I definitely wouldn't be able to remember any of my close friends or family members.
Honestly in an emergency, I would have an easier time going to library to use a computer to contact someone on Facebook or Instagram
