Has there been a scientific study to find out why the American brain is inferior?

LOL. Great way to insult a whole nation. Thomas Edison?

I'm British and proud of it. have to say though, I know some very intelligent Americans. Also you should be careful, I hear GWB comes on YA, he might wage war on Yahhhoooooooo!

It's not that the American brain is inferior. It's the fact that it is constantly bombarded by 'infotainment.' On news radio, in papers, and on TV all we ever see is a) pundits interviewing pundits b) local sensationalist news c) celebrity gossip or d) government-slanted propaganda (note that about 80% of all of that is the fault of Fox News and it's associated media). Not to mention the constant bias towards the view that if you question the status quo, you're supporting the terrorists.

I can say, as an American, that it doesn't so much make people dumber as it just numbs the senses.

Not particularly. There's been speculation, some of it centering around the complexity of the English language versus the complexity of Asian languages. To some extent, it may be cultural.

Also, it's a generalization. America has produced a number of notable intelligent people. This is almost certainly cultural. You don't become a fluid dynamics engineering professor if you're starving to death.

Are you aware that many Americans are descended from us Europeans?

Don't make yourself look foolish, their brains aren't inferior but in some cases their school systems are. They tend to make up for this with establishments like Harvard, Yale and Princeton etc'.

Has there been a study to see why you look like Tommy from the Rugrats

yes but the scientists appointed to the study were american. their conclusion: i want a hamburger

there is no such study and it is far from the truth. Those who think they are superior are in fact inferior themselves.

I blame the corn dogs.

who ever said it is? your scientific evidence is severely lacking. perhaps its the british brain that is inferior.

someone told me they were 7 hours behind in america... ????
