Thanks for tagging me on this. I've often wondered if a lot of
the brain's functioning is hard to measure because it's due to
cross-talk rather than circuits from perfect connections and the
brain-folding like a wad of paper makes sense in that context.
Then again, so does the "spillage" of squirting chemicals as the
water sloshes back and forth like an engine cleaner. [that's my
favorite analogy - it took me a long time to find an analogy to
the sinus pulse of water going back and forth in the head until
I found saw a video of an engine parts cleaner... and thought,
"THAT'S IT!". So, while I don't think they'll be fully
successful at finding a purely mathematical model that works as
nicely as algorithms for trees (which themselves only seem to
work because they *resemble* trees to our sensibilities... I'd
like to see some measurements) - I like the path they're taking
nonetheless. Thanks again for the link smile emoticon
