What would you tattoo on yourself, Memento style? I.e., what facts, goals, warnings, guidelines, etc are most fundamental to your sense of self? Assume basic biographic information (boring!) is a given, and limit yourself to an amount that could be easily read in a mirror.

Not a tattoo, but... I have this idea that the ultimate test of a computational theory of the structure of human memory would be to instantiate it as a PDA interface and give it to someone who has lost their long-term memory. The only problem is, you'd have to convince them (and get them to remember!) that the PDA is their memory.
