fafalone Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 Who is that 'Whut?' to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sayonara Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 It's a general "Whut" posted in the HOPE that someone might summarise how this thread degenerated so FAST, so I don't have to bother re-reading it. Ideally by using lots of WORDS in capitals to make them more TRUE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fafalone Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 The thread went downhill when Intelligence claimed he's a published researcher, and I noticed that the Brain Science Foundation does not publish its own journal, which explains why he won't give us his name.

YT2095 Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 the OCD bit sounds about accurate though probably all ending in "dol" or "zine" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sayonara Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 Brain Science Foundation sounds like something Warner Bros would come up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fafalone Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 It's a real organization that carries out legitimate research (http://www.brainsciencefoundation.org), they just don't publish their own journal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atinymonkey Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 Apparently is a supporting organisation of The Boston Foundation http://www.tbf.org/ who publish a great deal of stuff. I suspect that’s why the website appears to contain no reference to a journal. I can't find it at the Library of Congress, but the British Library has one publication from the Brain Science Foundation, the Annual Study report. Yours for only £5, no one has checked it out yet. If I wasn’t hung over I could go get it. Actually, it's not just that I'm hung over. More along the lines of being lazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intelligence Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 Fafalone - You sir are hugely mistaken. That organization is ABSOLUTELY NOT the brain science foundation I am speaking of. So it's funny how you do your little pansy google search and pick the first same-named organization. Did you bother to see how many of these there are? No. Instinct from emotion.......

Sayonara Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 That probably won't help your case, he did after all pick out the most legitimate and credible-looking one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fafalone Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 All the other google results contain references to the same organization. Had you bothered to actually read them, you'd know this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atinymonkey Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 Plus there is only one published article from any institution named 'Brain Science Foundation'. I think the posts indicate that some thought and effort has gone into looking for this journal that you asked was to be referenced. It's a bit hard to do that if you are going to be obtuse on f***ing purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavajoEverclear Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 Holy hannah, intel-- whats your problem that you are so freakin defensive of everything? Was it your parents, or do you have type of mental illness. Sorry that sounds EXTREMELY offensive, but honostly i don't mean it that way. When i see something wrong with a person, i blame it largely on their enviroment, which usually from the foundation of a persons life is there parents. Each individual has their own will power, but toward what means of decision their enviroment supports, or does not support appears to the main reason for the way a person develops. And then there are of coarse variations according to balance of certain brain chemicals----- and surely many other factors that we dont have the intelligence to properly analyze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kedas Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 To stay on topic: (or is that off-topic by now) Does someone has statistical information about left and right handiness on a global scale. (per country) If there are big differences it could be interesting. P.S. is 'intelligence'='Has No Intelligene' ?? (funny change) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glider Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 I have never seen data on lateralisation by ethnicity, so I don't think there is a relationship. I could be wrong, but I believe 20% of human beings are left handed, regardless of ethnicity. There used to be a cultural influence which may have distorted the data in the past, in that left handed people used to be forced to use their right hand from early school age. That doesn't happen any more though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
