We don't use most of our brains, so I'm thinking unscientifically/scientifically here,,, what if it kills different parts of different people's brains.

Ok this has been brought up a number of times in this post and I would just like to varify that we do not only use 10% fof our brain if that is what you are implying. In fact we use all of our brain but not at the same time. Each activity that we do uses a different part of the brain so it is wrong to think that we do not use parts of our brain at all. Which is why if Mary J were to be killing parts of your brain, it wouldnt go unnoticed. I'm not by any means stating that it doesnt affect your brain, I am just saying that there arent "parts" of your brain you do not use.

"The highly specialized regions of the brain give some insight into the many functions that the brain is capable of doing. So the development of the brain into specific sections that have been researched to facilitate specific functions, provides evidence that these regions are active in a normal humans lifetime. The fact that the brain has a highly ordered procedure for developing, leads researchers to believe that each region of the brain is essential. In fact, researchers have found several regions to account for one function, to imply that the collaboration of several brain regions is sometimes necessary for normal functioning. The 1012 neurons in the brain have not all been researched for activity or not, but researchers have found no evidence for unused abilities or large, unused regions of the brain."
