I wish they would take the big lotto winner in today for a complete brain work up, check all the things they know how to check on the human brain. Do this same work up monthly for the next 2 or 3 or 5 years. Might be interesting. ---

Would be much more interesting if they were able to do it yesterday too. Today is hardly a sensible baseline for anything about that person’s mental, physical, or emotional state. ---

Dr. Max Patel: That’s a gorgeous brain. Nice activity. Dr. Grace Augustine: Go figure. ---
