Far out!

Sounds like a Russian version of Cayce! I wonder if he'll get up to 90 percent. What happens then?

Great article!

"...Dr. G. V. Taratynova, a neuropsychologist, reading the CAT Scan results, said that Vladimir was using about 80 percent of his brain when solving problems, whereas in most people only about 3 percent of the brain's neuronal cells are active!"

This set off a skepticism alert in my mind.

If one were to use 80% of one's brain at once, one would have a *power surge* of sorts.

Can you imagine what a person using their entire brain at once would look like?! MAO! They'd be all freakin' out... it would probably look like some sort of Tourettes fit.

Re: The 10% myth...

quote:
1) Brain imaging research techniques such as PET scans (positron emission tomography) and fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) clearly show that the vast majority of the brain does not lie fallow. Indeed, although certain minor functions may use only a small part of the brain at one time, any sufficiently complex set of activities or thought patterns will indeed use many parts of the brain. Just as people don't use all of their muscle groups at one time, they also don't use all of their brain at once. For any given activity, such as eating, watching television, making love, or reading, you may use a few specific parts of your brain. Over the course of a whole day, however, just about all of the brain is used at one time or another.

2) The myth presupposes an extreme localization of functions in the brain. If the "used" or "necessary" parts of the brain were scattered all around the organ, that would imply that much of the brain is in fact necessary. But the myth implies that the "used" part of the brain is a discrete area, and the "unused" part is like an appendix or tonsil, taking up space but essentially unnecessary. But if all those parts of the brain are unused, removal or damage to the "unused" part of the brain should be minor or unnoticed. Yet people who have suffered head trauma, a stroke, or other brain injury are frequently severely impaired. Have you ever heard a doctor say, ". . . But luckily when that bullet entered his skull, it only damaged the 90 percent of his brain he didn't use"? Of course not.
