Scientific support, lying makes Bush’s brain work harder
QUOTE
Lying Makes Brain Work Harder
Brain scans show that the brains of people who are lying look very different from those of people who are telling the truth, U.S. researchers said on Monday.
The study, using functional magnetic resonance imaging, or fMRI, not only sheds light on what goes on when people lie but may also provide new technology for lie detecting, the researchers said.

2. Huh. How about that. I wonder if...
People then lie because it stimulates their brain? Wouldn't that make it "fun", on some level, to lie? More interesting?

4. I wonder if the same could be said about
people who mysteriously have bulges on their backs who attribute them to poorly tailored suits. Maybe incompetence affects the spine?
