Subject: Did you know a baby's mind intakes so may bits of information throughout the day, that it literally shuts down while the baby is sleeping. Several times throughout the night while the brain is processing this info. the baby's brain literally stops working for just a moment or two. When hubby was explaining this to me, he compared it to computer doing so much at once that it cause the computer to freeze.

  • So, when the Old World Europeans were sailing all over the globe, they didn't see elephants, bison, kangaroos, at first, cuz their brains didn't register their existance? And when the Conquistadors rode their horses, they must have been floating in the air, since the Indians probably couldn't see the horses either. (NT) -- Crystal, 10:25:11 06/07/06 Wed
  • Well I have never been much of one to actually believe that all horses were in Europe before they were ever seen in North America. I think horse skeletons have been overlooked because they were not a dinosaur. They did find horse fossils in Florida from 30 million years ago.... so why not some 500 years ago..... http://aquat1.ifas.ufl.edu/guide/fossils.html (NT) -- Varmit, 11:37:10 06/07/06 Wed
  • The mind wouldn't block out what it hasn't seen before though. It would make a correlation between the new image & something your mind already knows. In the case of the ships, probably canoes. That's why the baby's mind shuts down. Everything is new to a baby, so there is no past information to connect the image, sound, taste or feeling to. Without that connection it takes the mind longer to process the information. As people get older their mind doesn't shut down because of the information processing (that mind shuting down stops sometime around early childhood). That's simply because we have something to connect the new information too. By the way Varmit that wasn't a documentary you watched, but a mockumentary. They're making fun of documentarys. There were no actual scientist in the movie. I hear it's funny though, IS IT? (NT) -- rose, 12:26:58 06/07/06 Wed
