What are the evidences that the brain is a parallel processor?  My own
introspection seem to indicate that mine is doing time-sharing.  That is
I can follow only one idea at a time, but with a lot of switching
between reasoning paths (often more non directed than controlled
switching). Have different people different processors ? Or is the brain
able to function in more than one way (parallel, serial, time-sharing) ??
