Brain usage: 100%

[Fall]

The thing that confuses me, is why do we have that whole thing squashed into our heads, when we onlu use 10% of it.....

...weird..... :rolleyes:

I beleive we only use 10% of our true brain power, not the brain itself.

[COLOR=sandybrown]I think it is impossible to use 100% of our brain, but if it is possible we would be too overloaded with info and be more unorganized than ever. I think we can use only 10% cause all the other 90% controls our functions,movements etc.
Some book i read said psychics use more than 10% of their brain just to be psychic.[/COLOR]

[color=crimson][size=1]Well, use more than 10% of your brain! Nah, I'm just joking. It is confusing when you think about it. But I'm trying to sort it out in my own head.


BY THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks!

Anyway, I agree that if we used more than 20% or something that we would spawn off a series of great technology that would crush us (I need to stop watching Sci-Fi) anyway, but I do believe that if technology keeps progressing the way it is, in about 100 (more or less) years or so, we will have fighting robots or a superior race. Sorry, I'm just a crazy little kid. I'll go back to my corner...>sits in the shadows<

Well, right now it's a good thing we an't use all that brain power, since we would blow ourselves up in just a matter of weeks. I guess that we will slowly be able to use more as we keep evolving.
Chances are, species like the [I]Homo erectus[/I] and the Neanderthal only used about 9% or 8% of their brains...

The what and the what??

Smoky Joe is right about evolution. Through evolution, we would probably learn more and more of how to use more of our brain.

But you are wrong, for tests have been conducted to see how much of our brain we use, and which parts of the brain are concentrated to which parts of the brain. Things like rioting, reading, and so on, were tested out, and the parts of the brain that were more active were noted as the ones that were necessary to complete that task. When all activities were exhausted, the scientists concluded that only 10% of our brains were active. I am not so sure of our un-concious, although a different part of the brain deals with that area. Overall, only 10% of the brain was used.

So we have determined that different parts of the brain deal with different skill areas. A way of making an this grow would be a minor evolution as a species, say, a longer lifespan, as we wpould have a longer childhood to learn skills already known, and then more and more time to develop new skills, resulting in a small increase in brain usage.

However, I will see if I can clarify this from a web-site or another source.

P.S.: This thread was meant for fun, you know, not just being serious.

muahahaha did u know that in the davie crocket song it says he was a "Bear of a man" and he was 5'4''

That shows how evolution works. I'm turning 14 in 3 months and im 5'10''

Dang Evan, I'm 14 in 2 months and 5'2''

[B][SIZE=1][color=firebrick]Lol, exactly, people never think about those who only use 1.5% of our brains. :genius:

Anyways, yes, I've heard of that whole only using 10% of our brains thing. It makes you wonder, because if we only use 10% of our brains then everything we do is only 10% effecient. Which must be why everything sucks :drunk:[/size][/color] [/B][/QUOTE]


Meheheheheheheh...... I have a new view in life (not to mention a new excuse in science class....:drunk: )

In any case, I think if we could use 100% of our brains, then this topic would be useless......

Wait a 'tec.....I'm only at 0.00000007%......:cross:

*resets dial to 2 (aka 'Normal')*

Ok, let's see. I think we could, like, control things with our minds...... That'd be cool.. Play baseball with THAT ability...... Can you say "ball in orbit"? :P
