It does this because it wants to get bigger. In fact it wants to be the biggest brain in the world. Why such ambition?... This particular brain whishes to be put to work. Yes, you guessed it, the old cliche! Solving the problems of the World! Help make this brain bigger by sending a short message to: bigbrain@earthculture.com.au When the brain gets big enough, we'll put some questions to it, and see what it comes up with. What do you think? To expand it, send an email and with every email sent it will expand 1mm. The aim is to get the brain to be bigger than the Earth, then (and while it's growing) to ask it questions like.. "If necessity is the Mother of Invention, who is the Father?..." and such. P.S. Your email address will be kept in confidence unless you advise otherwise. Rock Solid!
