HEY, MAN, ARE YOU USING ONLY HALF YOUR BRAIN?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
You're pretty hip. We all know that.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
You can throw an I CHING hexagram and intuit its meaning. You
|
|||
|
|
know all about Hedonic Engineering and staying high. You've seen
|
|||
|
|
through all the social games.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
When it comes to the neurosomatic circuit of the brain, and
|
|||
|
|
body wisdom, you're a champ. And everybody knows it.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
But what about those mysterious left-hemisphere brain
|
|||
|
|
functions? Would'nt you like to learn the secrets of the West,
|
|||
|
|
previously known only to the adepts at the esoteric Princeton
|
|||
|
|
Institute for Advanced Studies? Stranges arts like the Equation,
|
|||
|
|
which predicts things before they happen, or the Syllogism, which
|
|||
|
|
allows you to test an argument for internal validity? Or
|
|||
|
|
would'nt you like to know how the mysterious Stereo works, or
|
|||
|
|
what keeps planes from falling out of the sky?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Imagine trying to live with one eye, or one lung, or one
|
|||
|
|
testicle.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Is'nt it equally a handicap to use only half your brain?
