I have a quirk in my brain that I can't remember strings of numbers if I try to, but if I read it once I'll recall it just fine.

It's like my brain realises I am intending to go back and read the string 2 numbers at a time, over and over again, so it doesn't bother remembering. But if I just read it out once and don't think about it until I need to recall it, my brain has the information available for me.
