Here is some interesting information about the human brain, as reported in Karen Ravn’s May 18, 2017 Los Angeles Times article "Some Amazing Facts About Your Unbelievable Brian":
- Your brain has "2,500,000 gigabytes of storage space...The top-of-the-line iPhone 7 has 256."
- There are "86 billion interconnected neurons in your brain that send information to one another at speeds of up to 268 mph."
- "The amount of energy supply your brain gobbles up" is 20%. "If your brain cells ever get too hungry, they may actually start eating one another."
- "You only feel pain if your brain tells you that you do. And it only tells you that you do when it receives a message from a pain receptor somewhere in your body."

I liked your article and am a bit amused by the misspelled word "Brian" for Brain in the title ( Some Amazing facts About Your Unbelievable Brian). This is an example of how our brains just fill in the blanks with known information to make meaning. Whoever wrote this did not see the typo because their brain saw Brain not "Brian" which does not make sense unless we are speaking about Brian's brain. Our brains innately seek meaning!
