It's Not That

lyrics

[Not all parts of the brain are the same, in this respect, you see. You’ve got the cerebrum, this is the part at the top, and you know, divided down the middle, and when you see brains that’s what you normally see with the convolutions in it. But right underneath, and at the back, is a thing called the cerebellum, which looks more like a ball of wool or something, and the cerebellum, and there may still be argument about this, but it seems to be that it’s completely unconscious, and it has comparable number of neurons, far more connections between neurons than the cerebrum, and it’s what takes control when, maybe when you’re driving your car and you’re thinking about something else and you’re not thinking what you’re doing, because it’s unconscious, and the unconscious control, you know a pianist who is very expert and moves the fingers around and plays a note with a little finger, that pianist doesn’t think, “Well I’ve got to move that muscle this way, and this bone that way and so on” and it’s all controlled unconsciously, but a lot of this unconscious control is done somewhere else, in the cerebellum, when you get really skilled. So, it seems to be OK you’ve got different kinds of structures, and it could well be that these pyramidal cells which have a particular organisation of microtubules are the ones where the consciousness is really coming to light mainly. I dunno, there’s a lot which is not known about this, controversial and all sorts of things. But the cerebellum seems to be different and organised differently. So, it’s not just how many neurons, how many connections are there, because there are more in the cerebellum. So, it’s not that.]

[The Earth is always changing. Climate change is nothing you have to prove. It always is happening, it always has happened. So, to make that into something alarming seems to me a little bit weird.]
