From an abc news article
Quote:

Whereas language is largely held in the left side of the brain, music activates visual, motor, and coordination areas on both sides as well as areas deep in the brain involved in memory and emotion . . . "Nothing activates the brain so extenively as music."

What about finding your way trough London traffic? That activates your aggravation, gives you a brand new vocabulary and empties your wallet if you can even find a praking slot. Twisted Evil
