guys,
erowid look to have recently updated the material on their site, so have a look around.
this article deals specifically with effects of e on memory and mental skills http://www.erowid.org/chemicals/mdma/references/mdma_overview_memory1.shtml
herewith is the conclusion if you cant be arsed
Conclusion
Despite the uncertainty of and problems with the research published as of March 1, 2000, there is enough evidence to think that heavy MDMA use may cause medium or long term disruptions in short term memory and/or some types of mental fuction. The data so far is too weak to say for certain whether this is true or what percentage of users would be affected. Also, to date, the evidence may suggest that if MDMA use causes any memory or attention changes, the changes are subtle and are more likely the more frequent the use, the higher the dose, and/or the larger the lifetime total use. Unfortunately even the correlation between increased use and increased change is uncertain.
The data is far from conclusive, but certainly suggests caution for those who use MDMA regularly or heavily.
cheers
