Good question - I don't have an answer.

I have another one.

How is the brain organised?

Take faces.

Are their filing cabinets with 4 drawers and individual folders in them?

Where are names kept?

Are faces in a separate folder?

Where are the relationships to me held?

How are they cross referenced?

How does nationality get taken care of, race, religion etc… ?


ooroo
