I made a few slight changes to the layout Wednesday night. If you noticed things moving around, rest assured you were not imagining things. I’ll be working on the site layout and features a lot the next few days. Please let me know any changes you want, like or hate. Also, the ”Synapses” are being worked on. Synapses will be very useful in the future and can be gained by activities on the site. More on that later. Thanks for your patience.

It outlines a collection of potential cognitive and brain processes that evolutionary pressures could have re-purposed to make this behavior possible.
