My hat is off to you, sir. After spending a greater part of my past week's evenings playing Diablo II, I can't help but appreciate level grinding of a decidedly more cerebral nature.

I have to say, though: I don't remember any of it off-hand. At some point in a "mind grind," your brain stops absorbing information from short-term into long-term memory, although you still retain the ability to make new short-term memories, so you still feel like you're "learning," even though it will all disappear sooner rather than later.
