|comment= I do like these ways of helping us to remember facts.
When I was young and learning to play the piano, '''A'''ll '''C'''ows '''E'''at '''G'''rass was the mnemonic I was taught to remember the notes '''A, C, E, G''' in the spaces of the bass clef. No doubt music students are still taught that. - Today the notes are the same. The mnemonic works the same. But is the statement itself still true? In the modern world in which agribusiness has taken over from so much traditional farming, and many cows are confined and never get a chance to graze in grassy pastures, maybe we should adopt a different mnemonic for these notes.
