Here are this morning’s:
* Brain scans reconstruct what you’ve seen — “It’s what you would actually use if you were going to build a functional brain-reading device.” — dream-readers and thought-controlled computers
* Is the Internet melting our brains? — no — and sorry for the pop-up ad
* Is foreign language use it or lose it? — it seems like it, but we may remember more than we think — able to quickly relearn and correctly identify phonemes that were spoken in the neglected language
* Why are babies born in the winter, on average, stupider? — socioeconomic background drives the season of conception, but God knows why — the prom effect?
* Maybe it doesn’t matter if you’re black or white — fewer people perceived there are strong conflicts between blacks and whites than saw strong conflicts between immigrants and the native born — or between rich people and poor people
