Well, it isn't the rat brain so much as it is the fundamental constituents of all multicellular neurobiological systems (and even single celled organisms as well, though to a much lesser extent of course). The ability to perceive and to modify subsequent behavior (i.e. learn) is an attribute associated with any collection of neurons, dendrites, axons and such. . . be it in the squid, rat, bat, chicken, chimp, or human astronaut. . . the hard part is driving home the point that it is important to learn. The struggle, even with humans, is to demonstrate the need for learning BEFORE an awareness of consequence is possible via direct individual observation. Thusly, a certain amount of this dilemma rests in the need for trust of the information of another, and a component of fundemental logic inherent within all choies, this is a component of acculturation. Thusly we can expect that over time and generations that if this element of acculturation is to continue to evolve that learning will continue to grow at an ever increasing rate. This bodes well for the future . . . provided that it doesn't take too long to develop this foresight within the human population. S!TX-EcoDragonBlack 1TX-Squadron XO

Now what would suck would be getting pwn3d by rat brain culture in a bowl.Then again, it probably gets to practice nearly 24/7. . . despite that I think it would probably not be the highlight of my virtual pilot's career. We should suggest that it learn PF. . . rat brain would be on my friends list for sure!http://www.wired.com/news/medtech/0,1286,65438,00.html?tw=rss.TOPS!TX-EcoDragonBlack 1TX-Squadron XO
