Yesterday, I blogged about how some of the latest findings in language usage are dialing back past claims about the degree of the brain's modularity.
More on that today; it appears that language usage by the brain is more of a kluge, or "workaround," than has previously been understood.
It probably undercuts, again, claims to human "rationality," too. I'm thinking more and more the old Enlightenment duality between "rational" and "irrational" needs evaluation and modification.
