Jumping into a conversation makes for lively conversations!

Thanks! Yes, I agree with your conclusions. But they don’t have to be “the end.”

I for one, would like to believe that we continue to learn things once we pass beyond Earth. I mean, there is so much I will never know, either because of my personal circumstances, my ability to comprehend, or my limited capacity to find a starting point.

We use only about 10% +/- 5% of our brain’s capacity, so what is the other 85%-90% for, if not for more knowledge?

In my case, it appears to be for retaining the lyrics to the theme songs of TV shows I watched when I was young.

It certainly ain't for remembering what I promised Mrs. ArGee I would pick up on the way home tonight. :0
