Well, we only use 10-15% of our brain at one time. All of it gets used at one point or another, depending on the stimuli.

It's kind of like the hard drive in your computer. It holds a ton of data, but only a portion of that data needs to be read at a given moment. Unless you're playing a video game or rendering something, the overwhelming majority of the system is idling.

The mind has evolved to make the most efficient use of energy and storage. There aren't any areas that never get used.
