re: #78 Last Mohican

Interestingly, the human body sort of has two brains as well. The gastrointestinal tract (i.e. esophagus, stomach, intestines) has its own nervous system, which can operate independently even if deprived of connections to the brain. It has about a hundred million nerve cells in it, which is more than there are in the spinal cord (but only about a thousandth of the number that are in the brain).

The gastrointestinal tract is not the only human organ that has its own brain.

Just sayin’.
