    Scientific American[^]:

    Tiny clumps of cells show basic cognitive abilities, and some animals can remember things after losing their head

    I thought there were lots of people already proving that brains aren't required?

      IQ drops exponentally with the amount of people coming together in the same place.

      M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

        I laughed when I read that the intelligence of living things is basically in your (or the worm's) butt. Reminds me of an old Bill Cosby gag about getting up and going into another room to get something and then forgetting. So you go back and sit down in your chair and then you remember what you wanted to get. Next time, instead of going back and sitting down, just stand there and push on your butt. Brent
