- fMRI scans show that the entire brain is active?
- Surgeons are careful not to slice at random in the brain?
- evolution selected for large brains that are huge energy hogs with only a 10% effective rate?

The 10% thing is incorrect. That's just silly science being wrong on so many levels. Who is to say what is "used" and what is "unused"? Some fucking electric signal mapping of the brain? Yeah, because we TOTALLY know everything about how the brain works.  

 The 10% thing is wrong.

I believe you said that twice. It has been proven to be correct by the brain activity use over a period of years on several thousand test subjects. The normality of the situation is that average human beings do use 10% of their brains. I'm not saying we know exactly how the mind works, but we do know that humans do use 10% of their brains.

I agree with uvawithabrokenheart
The 10% thing is wrong. Though our brains use 10% to think perhaps, the other 90% is being used to control our body. Example: Controling our motor and sensory nerves.
And the whole scientists being geniouses using 20% of their brains, notice that over half of these are either Mentaly or physicaly retarded. Meaning that the brain would need to focus less on the body, giving a sharper mind.
Thats my view anyway

haha actually this reminds me of a shirt we sell at Rensselaer Polytech.

it says:
I go to Rennslear [with rennslear crossed out]
I go to Renseleer [again crossed out]
I go to Renss...
I'm good at math

sorry, i just think its a funny shirt [its an engineering college, which is why its funny]
