Say what...???!
(IF YOU ARE NOT A FAN OF MYSTERY OR SCIENCE, IGNORE THIS POST. IT WILL BE EXTREMELY LONG AND BORING.)
Hmm... This post will be just random shit, so don't expect much hopeful readers. Brain brain brain... We always refer our brain to be the object or tool to store our memories whatsoever. But have you ever asked yourself, how do your brain remember? Our brain is roughly about, say... 60% fats, and then mostly water. So why can't your little tummy remember stuff and solve your math equations. Yeah its quite a wonder, and mystery itself.

"Our brains are better than a computer.
it's garbage in garbage out.
We never forget, we just don't recall and our professor told us
never to say "I have forgotten" you have to say I just dont'
recall right now..........even a smell can trigger a thought from 20 years ago.....when you have de ja vu it's because of something
we have done.........also when you smell something it may bring
back a memory.
Our brain is powerful. A mind is a terrible thing to waste.
We all can learn and be rewired from some stokes. That's how
powerful our brain is............so people that use drugs, STOP."
Heh, cool (To me at least). Now after some reading, i have dug up some cool stuff and things to consider.
It is a myth that our brains work at only about 10% (It cannot be confirmed, the mysteries of the brain is yet to be solved). But lets say that the myth turned up true. An average fully functioning brain can generate up to 10 watts of electrical power, typical power to household is 1800Watts (USA). Hmm 100 watts at 100% brain power?(might not seem much, but its like charging your cellphone 18 times slower) Looking at it at a dumb simple way. Imagine, that you could freely go around using 100 watts of power on an object just with your brain power.
Now, on the other hand the first to outline this theory, later proved a fact by others, was Australian Neurology Nobel Laureate Sir John Eccles. (Lecture: University of Colorado, University Memorial Center Boulder, July 31, 1974.) "The brain indicates its powers are endless." Like since when there was a limit to what we could remember, like a computer. With a fixed limit with a "not enough memory" error popup, infinite brain power? This is where it gets interesting.
"In England, John Lorber did autopsies on hydrocephalics. This illness causes all but the 1/6th inch layer of brain tissue to be dissolved by acidic spinal fluid. He tested the IQ's of patients before and during the disease. His findings showed that IQ remained constant up to death. Although over 90% of brain tissue was destroyed by the disease, it had no impact on what we consider to be normal intelligence."
"Today, most would agree without argument that the potential of the human brain is infinite. Thus, to state that a person uses 10%, 5%, or even 1% of their potential brain capacity (infinity) is overly generous."
"How can you calculate a percentage of infinity?"
Its hard to believe about the infinite theory, but when you think deep. It kind of starts to feel like, or at least make you believe that... "Hey this might actually be true, no shit." (AT LEAST FOR ME). If so, this is where psychic and supernatural powers starts to kick in. Even though the human race has been evolving and using our brain constantly. Are we actually at a point where we have no idea what our brain's potential actually is? Yet another question left unanswered...
Well that concludes.
