I been having some  success in finding relationships between the
structure of three data bases (New York Times, Chides, and my electronic
mail messages) and human memory.   A criticism of all our memory sources
is that they are human-fashioned.  Does anyone know of  example of a
non-human data base that is still computer encoded.  The ideal here is
something like a record of the animals encountered in an
environment--how appearances of animals of various types repeats over
time. In any case, does anyone have ideas for alternate data bases to
look at.

Thanks in Advance
