Bicameral Mind - About A Question, Then An Answer

---

Bicameral Mind - Part of the brain asks a question, another part answers the question

---

In psychology, bicameralism is a hypothesis which argues that the human brain once assumed a state known as a bicameral mind in which cognitive functions are divided between one part of the brain which appears to be "speaking", and a second part which listens and obeys.

Yeah, I've read this before. It's interesting. A friend of mine has a child with an 'agenesis of the corpus caollosum and that made me think of bicameralism. Apparently those kids often express autistic type behaviours.
