The same way I know 2,3,5,7 are the first primes without flashing a picture of the number line in my head, or Beethoven's 5th starts "ba-ba-ba-baahm" without flashing a picture of the sheet music in my head. Most of my memories are not stored in graphic form.

How do you retrieve the information about windows in your house? I can just walk through my house through my mind, but if you don't see... how else would you retrieve information that you don't have memorized?
