- Assertion
- Clark and Chalmers argue that, in the case of Otto and his notebook compared with Inga and her biological memory, the notebook plays the same role for Otto that biological memory plays for Inga, so its contents qualify as Otto's beliefs.
- Quote
Otto walked to 53rd Street because he wanted to go to the museum and he believed the museum was on 53rd Street... For in relevant respects the cases are entirely analogous: the notebook plays for Otto the same role that memory plays for Inga.
