I cannot believe that no one posted this yet. It's fascinating.

'Last year, an international group of astrophysicists used a computer simulation to judge the shape of the universe– and what they found is that it looks an awful lot like a brain cell.'

The NY Times picture is here (http://www.nytimes.com/imagepages/2006/08/14/science/20060815_SCILL_GRAPHIC.html) (though I warn that it's taking alot of hits right now and may take some time to pull up).

I think this is utterly fascinating, though oddly, not terribly surprising.

Wow my mind just got blown. Sweetness. We are all just a bunch of Whos walking around in Horton's head.

That is really cool, yet kinda scary at the same time.

Let's just hope no oversized bullets come crashing into the head we're in.

Wait... so Men In Black was wrong and we don't live in a marble?! But but....darnit...What am I gonna do with this bag of little universes?? :P

If we're a brain cell... we're probably in the brain of a drug addict or a very deranged person.

That is truly fascinating, thanks for posting. I'm obsessed with all the mysteries of the universe and things we dont understand...stuff drives me insane.

Wow my mind just got blown.
And there goes another universe, according to theory.

You know, I have a weird feeling that all this was the result of pot-smoking and science, like that scene in Animal House.

I know the Universe is small in scale and blah blah blah and all that, but this made me shizzy my pants. And I have a strong sphincter!

Man, that is crazy...the possibilities are endless...

or maybe we're just looking a little too much into it...Virgin Mary grill cheese anyone?

If you believe in the Creation story, this actually kind of makes sense....really makes you think. Wow.
