Why "in memory of" and not "in remembrance of" in 1 Cor.11:24?

In the Eucharistic liturgy now used in the Roman Catholic church, Jesus says, "Do this in memory of me." This always strikes me as weak and inappropriate compared with what I used to hear, "Do this in remembrance of me." The former formulation seems more appropriate in reference to someone who has died, whereas the latter is more consistent with the idea of re-experiencing Christ who died and rose from the dead and will come again. Am I correct that the liturgy was changed from "remembrance" to "memory," and if so, what was the justification and what was the discussion at the time?
