    One stall for 7 people isn't what I expected from a prestigious American university

    We had much more than that in Stuttgart.

      I can't disagree with you, Lorizael. I can't 'prove' any of it. It's all about choice and what we choose to believe is truth. Maybe someday there'll be some proof that intuition is real or a hoax...until then I choose to believe.

        *shrug* Will you at least discard the idea that humans only use ten percent of their brain? This doesn't need to be proven false, because there was never any evidence that it was true in the first place. It's just a wildly distorted piece of misinformation that has managed to survive for far too long.

          I'll give you this much...maybe we have not yet identified what the other 90% is used for...

            Pekka, you're giving Finns a bad wrap. Stop with the killing stuff.

              That's... slightly closer to the truth, but not really. What neuroscientists understand today is that humans use all of their brain - experiments have shown this to be true - but don't use all of it at the same time (this is the kernel of truth in the 10% idea. We might only use 10% of our brain at any given time, but by no means is the rest some nebulous, mysterious blob waiting to be explored.).

              Neuroscientists also know what parts of the brain are active when a human is performing a certain activity or thinking a certain kind of thought, but they don't necessarily know why that part of the brain is active, or what that part of the brain is actually doing.

              Neuroscience is not the insubstantial pseudo-field it used to be. Scientists actually know a **** load more than what I just described here, but I'm not actually a neuroscientist; I can't actually tell you all of what they know.

                  The biggest testament to the power of women is that nobody has bothered to "initiate" Janaki with the DL dance. So let me have that (dubious ) honour:

                        But I have an excuse - I'm currently going through my examinations, and I can't devote the time I should to the forum.

                          men have intuitions as well. It's just sometimes (as in my case) we choose not to follow it.

                                women are better communicators than men, but they don't necessarily have better intuition. I have to agree with Lori on this aspect.

                                Men don't become successful on their careers by intelligence alone. Men are capable of intuition just as much as women. In fact, intelligence is not required to be successful (see the U.S. president)
