Brain.

Submitted by christinequeho on Tue, 11/16/2010 - 12:03am.

It's funny the way brains work, like how some brains process faster than others.  Sometimes brains can "absorb more information" than others.  I wonder why that is.  Is it possible to train the brain?  And it's amazing how much storage the brain can hold, but can it hold infinite amounts of information?  I mean, doesn't the brain get rid of some memory to make space for more information (why we forget things)?  How much can the brain actually hold?
