This is super interesting, and someone let me know if I'm interpreting it wrong.

This reminds me of times when I go back home and I have to remember a route to get somewhere, say the mall, and in my head I following a path that I remember. Every Time I need to go somewhere in a car it is the most obvious that I am following that path.

I wonder if this can be used to help people remember events by using locations to help bring that memory forward. Say you show a picture to someone on a day something traumatic has happened and the location actually helps them remember and they can walk through that situation.
