The fact remains that if you took out 75% of Einstein's itsy-bitsy brain, his brain function would still probably be better than both of ours put together.

First of all, his brain was not itsy-bitsy--perhaps even bigger than yours, but it's hard to tell without further testing.

Second, it depend which parts. Not all neurons are created equal........ If you removed his cerebral cortex, you'd be a hell of a lot smarter.

Terri Schiavo's Family Responds to Medical Examiner's Report

"There is absolutely no evidence that Terri wanted to die of dehydration, or that she believed that that the level of one's disability gives anyone the moral and legal right to end another's life," Vitadamo (Terri's sister) said.

"Terri was dehydrated to death before our eyes. The moral shame of what happened is not erased because of Terri's level of disability," she added.

Vitadamo said that society has "lost our compassion for the disabled" by virtue of saying people who are blind or mentally disabled, like Terri, are better off dying.
