Basically, a function of building, constantly, new neural networks as opposed 
to traveling  or looping continuously, the same routes.  Which has more to do 
with mapping (like explorers) than with intelligence. Was Magellan a genius, a 
man or superior intelligence or just curious adventurer eager to learn?  Short 
term memory loss has not much to do with intelligence either, demonstrated by 
Dan. :)

The fixed position that MMS does not enter the brain....simply because one 
"knows" it does not, would probably be a primary deterrent (if it in fact does 
- yet not clinically confirmed) to complete utilization.....physiological  
brain barrier vs mental brain barrier.  ;)

I mentioned people reporting euphoria, sense of well being. Neurotransmiters -  
Originate as Messengers OF the Brain...to the body.

While what Wayne says is true, that the brain has functional utility, has for 
millions, not thousands of years, serves the individual, tolerates only so many 
chemicals, is self-sustaining,  by all evolutionary standards, humans today are 
a far cry from their grunting ancestors.  Brain has built-in functional 
obsolescence as well. :)

You seem to have equated intelligence with education.  This is not
correct.

Carlos Castaneda had an interesting view of memory.  He believed that
memory is a function of one's "assemblage point."  The assemblage point
being the "position" from which your consciousness assembles reality
(which might be thought of as similar one's point of view - but more
fundamental than that).  Anything experienced at one position is
accessible if you attain that position again, and if you move off that
position to a new position it is not accessible.  Most people maintain a
relatively fixed position so memory is accessible.  Mine tends to drift
continually...  I don't expect you to follow that, (so much for
controlled folly)...
