I wonder how much we spent to discover that having better brains means that you can think better. Somehow the premise itself is a total waste of money and time. Why do I pay taxes for this crap.

Seriously in what way will this astounding discovery ever make enough money to replace what was spent to discover it? Don’t they realize how hard it is to actually make something that is worth enough money to pay for this waste of time.

It’s like people in Academia think that me working for a living is for the purpose of them and their lifestyles. Isn’t it funny that they drive a BMW and I drive an old pickup truck.

I wish one of them someday would invent something that would actually improve things and make money! Oh well I guess it’s better than the last study on the length of rat genitalia.

Imagine if you could do scans on children at the beginning of a school year, and spend the year running study groups of various types of educational styles and then see what impact those styles had on brain development. The first stage to making a recognition have impact is having some metric to use for evaluation.

I think this study does have potential impact as a metric.

As in Democrat? Because they sure do wave those things around a lot. At least we have that Barton guy. Though from the dough boy pic we may not have much to work with.
