I saw a documentry the other week on savants. people with exceptional inteelligence. There is a professor at Sydney university who is meant to be a world leader in this type of research. He has not only discovered which parts of the brain are stimulated to produce intelligence for several types of intelligence. But he created a helmet doohicky to stimulate those areas. What he effectively does is temporarily turn you into a savant. You would see these people draw a picture or identify errors in litrature, they would undergo the procedure and then suddenly their drawings are heaps better an they noticed heaps more errors. I found it facinating. You could go and ask him if you could have a go at it....
