QUOTE Satellite navigation systems can stunt your brain, preventing it from developing, according to scientists. They have discovered that taxi drivers have actually grown more brain cells because of all the knowledge they keep in their heads.

Yes people are born with smarts. Every person has a certain brain that can do certain things. In the same way, some people are naturally bigger which makes their bodies better for lifting weights and training. So it makes sense if you think of the brain as a muscle. If you don't use your brain then it turns to mush. There are retards everywhere but they were born that way. If you got the brains try and use them instead of relying on machines to do the work for you...
They say the same thing about music. Kids who are involved in music get higher grades then kids who are not. -------------------- A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?
