I can just look at a resistor and immediately tell the value; I've been
doing it for so many years.  But I have a tough time remembering the color
code!  It's the same way with typing.  I type about 100 wpm, but if you
caught me away from a keyboard, I'm not sure I could list the keys on the
home row.  

On the other hand, I'd never be able to remember the order of colors in
the rainbow without the mnemonic VIBGYOR.
