I found an interesting topic on the human brain..
Human brain can make new cells, study finds - Yahoo! News
thats awesome, Ive already been donating to those who need a brain
meh i can't say specifics, cuz this is a good informative post and defintately don't wanna see it deleted..
but i did a certain thing all day everyday, and came out brain damaged, couldn't say one sentence without stuttering through it, couldn't remember alot of things, couldn't think of words i needed... before i did said thing, i was smart as hell... A student never failed blah blah blah... after two weeks of this act.. (that is said to destroy brain cells and is pretty much universally accepted it does) pretty much all day... i came out all fucked up and stupid...
then after a couple of years, i started somehow getting 'repaired' like all those damn brain cells started coming back.. i dunno if that's what really happened, but i know now (6-7 years later?) i operate at nearly the same level i did before this act.. so i can support this, and am living proof...
Sometimes my brain is doing all sorts of things I can't figure out.
I heard about these guys in India who can think themselves to death man!
Thats the shit i can be smart again.
The brain kicks ass!
i dont understand! did they think you kept the exact same brain cells until you die?
i think scientists would be a little smarter than that. especially since ive always heard that after one year there is not a single original cell left in your body, they've all reproduced and died.
haha yeah, "I heard about these guys in india man, their minds are so advanced they can actually think themselves to death man!"Quote:

It's true. All the cells that were in your body seven years ago have died and been replaced by new cells. This reminds me of something Richard Dawkins said in this talk of his:Quote:

After all, you really were there at the time, weren't you? How else would you remember it? But here is the bombshell: you weren't there. Not a single atom that is in your body today was there when that event took place. Matter flows from place to place, and momentarily comes together to be you. Whatever you are, therefore, you are not the stuff of which you are made. If that doesn't make the hair stand up on the back of your neck, read it again until it does, because it is important."
Ha ha! That's how it goes. :pQuote:
